About “Sherlock Holmes vs. Dracula”
The year is 1890. A ship is discovered adrift off the English coast, its crew missing, its murdered captain lashed to the wheel, and its only passenger a sinister black dog. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson investigate the mystery, uncovering a trail that leads them to Count Dracula, as they confront a series of violent crimes including the impalement of the "Bloofer Lady," the abduction of Watson's wife Mary, and a final confrontation on a lonely beach.
Praise for “Sherlock Holmes vs. Dracula”
“I wondered if two such large-scale stories would clash when pulled together but Estleman weaves them together artistically.”
“Estelman’s Watson and Holmes are every bit the comic duo of the hit movies starring Robert Downey, Jr. and Jude Law. And his Holmes is as sharp as the Sherlock of Benedict Cumberbatch in the hit BBC TV series.”
“Estleman captures the language of the Sherlockian canon very well.”
