Honour has its price. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are about to find out how much.

When an unctuous "agent" named Maundy Gregory offers Dr. Watson a knighthood for a price, the good doctor is both tempted and repulsed. A decade later, Sherlock Holmes is approached with the same corrupt bargain. Together, they confront the dark heart of Britain’s honours system, uncovering a conspiracy that reaches into the highest echelons of government—and leads to an uncomfortable showdown in the Stranger’s Room of the Diogenes Club.


London businessman, Orlando Pearson is the creator of The Redacted Sherlock Holmes series, which buries forever the idea that Sherlock Holmes might not have been a historical person.

Do you want to see Sherlock Holmes come to the rescue of Queen Victoria, arrange the borders of post-war Europe, clear Macbeth of murder, unravel King Oedipus’s complexities, or provide advice to the Almighty? Then you will find all this and more in the seven collections of short stories, two novels, and the six plays in the series.

When not communing with the spirits of 221b, Orlando enjoys sport, music, and browsing price comparison websites.

He has written Sherlock Holmes stories on all these topics.
