Sherlock Holmes

The Poet and His Muse

By: Orlando Pearson

Narrated by: Keith Spilsbury

"Draw your chair up, good Watson, and hand me my violin, for the only problem we have still to solve is how to while away these bleak autumnal evenings.”

After these words bring The Noble Batchelor to a close, Holmes lets his emotionless façade slip by the Baker Street fireside as he tells Watson of his very first case. Dating back to 1869, the case takes in the Thames, London Zoo, Highgate Cemetery, a poet, and a beautiful and tragic female figure.

A must for all lovers of the outré.

Orlando Pearson, creator of the well-known Redacted Sherlock Holmes series, commutes into London during the day and communes with the spirits of Baker Street by night.

An international businessman, his interests include classical music, history, literature, current affairs, sport, and economics. All these themes find their way into his stories, which are being translated into German and Italian.

Mr. Pearson is married with two children and lives near Wisteria Lodge.

Beauty and the young detective

A short story with many tie-ins and reasons for some of his somewhat strange mannerisms that will be part of the famous detective.

Holmes short story

Sherlock Holmes The Poet and his Muse by Orlando Pearson is a nice short story that reveals Holmes’ first case. The narration by Keith Spilsbury is very good. I received a free audiobook code for my honest review.

Another Pearson gift

Another interesting short tale from Pearson involving Holmes and a bit of his creative side.

Terrible Narrator

Ok for a very short story but rather a ham actor. I would have returned were it not so short
