Description

Sherlock Holmes returns to his seaside farmhouse in 1947, his mind struggling with the devastating effects of nuclear warfare he witnessed during a recent journey. As he tends to his bees and faces the end of his days, he comes to rely on the company of his housekeeper and her young son, Roger. In this new twist on the world's most famous detective, Holmes revisits the unsolved case that forced him into retirement and searches for answers to the mysteries of life and love. With the boy's help, he grapples with the diminishing powers of his mind and seeks a way to make sense of his past before it's too late. A poignant exploration of aging, loss, and the human condition, Mr Holmes is a thought-provoking novel that offers a fresh perspective on one of literature's most iconic characters.
