Sherlock Holmes Alone
Even the world's greatest detective has to retire at some point. Sherlock Holmes has done just that. He has decided to wind down and settle down in a cozy and somewhat lonely villa in Sussex near the village of Fulworth. He has given up entirely to that soothing life of Nature for which he had so often yearned during the long years spent amid the gloom of London. Holmes, his housekeeper and his bees have the estate all to themselves.
Yes, the super sleuth has become a bee keeper! He spends his days caring for his buzzing charges, walking along the chalk cliffs, or exploring the admirable beaches with their splendid swimming pools that are filled afresh with each tide.
It is a peaceful and calm life for a man who has lived so much adventure and danger. But sometime Holmes does long for the old days. The heady days of investigation and intrigue. At this point in his life his friend and partner John Watson has passed almost beyond his keen having married and settled down in his own right. So where does Holmes turn? With whom will he share his stories and memories? He will share them with you!
Alone in his great book filled garret Holmes will dig deep into his personal records and the notes made by Dr. Watson to share his own view on his famous cases. It may be surprising to find out just how close Holmes own recollections mirror Watson's. Holmes will recount to you his most memorable cases and his most fierce opponents. Join us as we explore one of the greatest minds of all time here on SHERLOCK HOLMES ALONE.
