Guests of War Trilogy: the Sky by Kit Pearson

Each of these nineteen tales, fromSherlock's first appearance in A Study in Scarlet to the late classic The Dying Detective, is a potent mix of murder, suspense, cryptic clues, red herrings, and revenge--a ground-breaking combination of forensic science and bold storytelling. Sherlock Holmes established new rules for what a fictional hero could be, and provided a template for detective stories we still follow today. This beautifully designed collection is the perfect introduction to the world of Sherlock Holmes and the ultimate gift for fans of the show it inspired.

Kit Pearson spent many years as a librarian before publishing her debut novel, The Daring Game, in 1986. She went on to write The Sky Is Falling (1989), Looking at the Moon (1991), and The Lights Go On Again (1993), which were released as The Guests of War trilogy in 1999, as well as Awake and Dreaming (1996), which won the Governor General's Prize. Pearson lives in Victoria, near Ross Bay Cemetery, which is featured in Awake and Dreaming.
