A Christmas Story

Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson are traveling one day before Christmas Eve in the year 1882 on their way back from a successfully solved case in a horse-drawn sleigh through rural England. Due to an accident, they are forced to stay overnight in the small town of Christchurch. There, during the night, they hear mysterious bell ringing and organ music, and the next day, they learn of a murder at the cemetery. The perpetrator, Richard Wellesley, has fled, leaving his unhappy family just before the Christmas holiday. Will Holmes and Watson succeed in saving Christmas?



Out of passion for the Victorian era and unreserved admiration for the greatest detective of all time, Francis London has been writing Sherlock Holmes pastiches since 2016, closely adhering to the style of Arthur Conan Doyle's original works.



A murder threatens to endanger the Christmas celebration in the small town of Christchurch, and Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are investigating in the snowy, rural England.
