Holmes Coming
Kenneth Johnson
A brilliant, real-life Victorian detective and master chemist--who'd become known to the public under the name Sherlock Holmes--was inspired by his friend H. G. Wells to investigate the mysteries of the future. He devised a Jules Verne-worthy method to hibernate in 1899.
When accidentally awakened and his life saved by Dr. Amy Winslow in today's San Francisco, the egoistic, uber-British, cocaine-addicted, sexist genius is a century out of sync, so his still-astonishing deductions are sometimes laughably or dangerously incorrect. Amy reluctantly becomes his new Watson, perilously involved in a series of bizarre murders being committed by a descendant of Holmes's late archenemy, Professor Moriarty.
The tone is classic, suspenseful Holmes, with refreshing twists of fish-out-of-water humor plus a surprising spark of romance.
