in this 12,000 word novelette Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson investigate a gang of smugglers. They face danger and deplorable conditions in pursuit of those who flout the law and Her Majesty's Revenue Department.

Extended description

Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson uncover a well organised and substantial smuggling operation. The criminals style themselves as Free Traders, and deny Her Majesty's Government's right to levy import duties on goods.
The pair follow the trail through sewers and a church to a moonlit landing of contraband in order to discover the secrets of the Free Traders Consortium.
With the information they gather, the Revenue Department is able to interdict a considerable operation, and arrests are made.

Review by: j-views on Jan. 18, 2012 :
Highly enjoyable for all those who love Sherlock Holmes and his world and are disappointed by the fact that Arthur Conan Doyle stopped the writing the Holmes stories when he did. Some interesting "steampunk" treatment here of the famous sleuth and his sidekick, which still manages to keep the spirit of the original very much alive.
