Sherlock Holmes: The Crossovers Casebook - October Previews

Moonstone Books' Sherlock Holmes: The Crossovers Casebook is listed in the October Previews, with a target publication date of January 2012.

My story is "The Adventure of the Fallen Stone" takes place in 1917, a year after Philip Jose Farmer's The Peerless Peer, and sends Holmes and Watson to the quiet English village of Wold Newton. Of course there is much crossover goodness, with appearances by the  detective Harry Dickson ("the American Sherlock Holmes"), a femme fatale of the Sax Rohmer variety, and an appearance by another Holmesian detective who also resided on Baker Street. Oh, and the mystery also has a strong tie to my Avenger tale "Happy Death Men," recently out in Moonstone's The Avenger: The Justice, Inc. Files.

The Diamond Item Code is OCT111169. Check it out, won't you?
