Sherlock Holmes: The Gods of Mischief
(2026)(A book in the Watson Chronicles series)
A novel by Christopher D Abbott
When a missing necklace brings a troubled client to Baker Street, Sherlock Holmes expects a trivial domestic theft. Instead, he and Dr. Watson uncover a thief lying dead with a fresh surgical scar behind his ear — the first in a series of unexplained deaths in London’s East End.
As more young men vanish, Holmes, Watson, Inspector Peter Evans, and Bill Wiggins must navigate a maze of misdirection and fear. Someone is orchestrating chaos from the shadows — and unless Holmes can uncover the unseen hand guiding it, another life will be lost.
The Gods of Mischief is the newest entry in The Watson Chronicles, a series of Holmes adventures told with faithful Victorian voice, rich atmosphere, and the emotional depth of Watson’s perspective. Each novel stands alone, yet together they form a portrait of Holmes and Watson at their most human — and most brilliant.
Perfect for readers who love:
