Baker Street Irregulars discussion

In The Sign of Four, Holmes tells Watson that the most winning women he ever knew had been hanged for poisoning three children for their insurance money.
"Hidden Fires" is the real story, and also Holmes' professional "origin story."

Just started reading it. It is seriously good.

I just learned the publisher posted that "Hidden Fires" was their best seller for October, even though it wasn't released until the second week. I've been getting good feedback. (Though, GR still hasn't put the book up on the site.)

PS - I see that Goodreads has finally put it up. 11/13

Belated thanks, Barbara. The bad news is that I've gotten few reviews so far - I know it's a busy season. The good news is that they've all been very positive.

Recently, the audio was released. I don't have Audible, but I have had several people tell me that the reader was excellent.

A 5 star read, highly recommended.

Harder and harder for me to find a page turner, so I re-read this over Christmas. Just as good as the first time - even though I knew the ending!

Thanks, Barbara!
