Part of Series
A mysterious theft at the British Museum is followed by an unexpected death at an archaeology dig in Egypt. Holmes and Watson follow clues that lead from London to the ancient deserts of Cairo. Exactly who are the Cult of the Free? And what connects them to each event? It falls upon Sherlock Holmes and his faithful friend, Dr Watson, to determine the motives. But it soon becomes apparent that the clues are almost as difficult to discover as the ancient tombs themselves… — This book was inspired by Abbott's original short story, SHERLOCK HOLMES The Egyptian Ring. It was first published in Songs of the Osirian: Companion and was later included in the paperback edition of SHERLOCK HOLMES A Scandalous Affair.
Author
Christopher is a Reader's Favorite award winning author and Star Trek Feature Writer. Described by New York Times Bestseller Michael Jan Friedman as "an up-and-coming fantasy voice", and compared to Roger Zelazny's best work, Abbott's Songs of the Osirian series of works brings a bold re-telling of Ancient Egyptian mythology. Abbott presents a fresh view of deities we know, such as Horus, Osiris, and Anubis. He weaves the godlike magic through musical poetry, giving these wonderfully tragic and deeply flawed "gods" different perspective, all the while increasing their mysteriousness. His Sherlock Holmes stories, published in the Watson Chronicles Series, have been recognised by readers and peers alike as faithfully authentic to the original Conan Doyle. In 2022, after publishing seven individual Watson Chronicle stories, Christopher teamed up with prolific authors Michael Jan Friedman and Aaron Rosenberg to add a collection of Holmes short stories to the series. Christopher has published with Crazy8Press and written for major media outlets, including ScreenRant.
