Sherlock Holmes - The Waterloo Colour and Other Stories by Mike Hogan

Ensign the Hon. Ian Lewin, 112th Foot, is accused of deliberately allowing the French to capture his regiment's flag at the battle of Waterloo. A seventy-year-old cold case of cowardice in the face of the enemy leads Holmes to France on the trail of the missing Waterloo colour.

Five traditional stories narrated by Doctor Watson and with an occasional wry twist.

In Angelique, Holmes is incapacitated by fever and he requires his fellow lodger Doctor Watson to act as his sleuthhound in a missing persons case.
Raw facts, my dear fellow. Do not expend your energy in analysis: leave that to me.
Watson's investigation uncovers two separate conspiracies, with each competing for the destruction of the other.

The Waterloo Colour sees Holmes investigating a seventy-year-old mystery that has spawned at least one duel and has had two families at each others' throats for a generation.

The story of the Benevolent and Virtuous Order of the Swamp Python sees a Chinese secret society attempt to establish itself in South London and Holmes' use of the most modern technology to thwart them.

In the Abominable Madame Ricoletti, the escape of a patient from the lunatic asylum at Broadmoor puts Holmes, Watson and Lestrade at terrible risk.

In Amity Among Nations, Holmes must find the source of a leak of diplomatic secrets that might be a catalyst for war between the United Kingdom and the United States.
