The Only One in the World

"What a terrific anthology this is! Highly recommended." What if Sherlock Holmes was Polish? What if he or John Watson were Indian or Irish or Australian or Japanese? How would their worlds look if one or both was from a completely different background? In The Only One in the World, we asked a baker’s dozen of writers to answer these questions, and the marvelous results are adventures in Ancient Egypt, Viking Iceland, and 17th century England; in 19th century Ireland, Germany, and Poland; in South Africa of the 1970s and New Orleans of the 1920s; and in contemporary Australia, USA, Russia, India and Portugal. The stories and contributors taking a new look at our old friends, Sherlock Holmes and John Watson, include: The Affair of the Purloined Rentboy by Greg Herren S.H.E.R.L.O.C.K. by Atlin Merrick The Path of Truth by Jack Fennell Sharaku Homura and the Heart of Iron by Jason Franks The Adventure of the Disappearing Village by Natalie Conyer The Saga of the Hidden Treasure by
