New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes


Maxwell Conroe teamed up with his virtual co-author Dr. John Watson to reinvigorate the impeccable reputation of Sherlock Holmes, the world’s foremost detective. Conroe revives the villains first featured in Doyle’s canonical stories and adds a few of his own. He sublimely blurs the line between the real and surreal with Dickens giving clues about his murder in his last manuscript, retrieving a letter written by Marie Antoinette of France to blackmail King George III of the United Kingdom.

As an existential fiction writer, Conroe claims that Holmes can teach us how to survive life’s difficulty journey:

What Sherlock Holmes teaches us is to be observant, reflect and connect the dots to reveal the unseen. This strategy comes in handy, when setting and adjusting the course of our own journey in life, based on precisely his methods.

An eminent cast of reviewers praised the New Adventures:

I am very pleased to see how Conroe revives Holmes and Watson to experience some of their best adventures ever written.

— Sir Arthur Conan Doyle —

Maxwell Conroe has now written several new masterpieces – The Dickensian Conspiracy and Secrets of the Purloined Letter – have my blessing.
