The Celtic Phoenix
An enigmatic jewellery case holding human remains forces Sherlock Holmes out of retirement to chase a coldblooded murderer.
To follow the trail of the murderer taunting him, he needs Tessa Wiggins, a former Baker Street irregular, by his side. The two find themselves battling forces arising from a time before England was a country—when the Celts were fighting for survival.
Though set in 1919, The Celtic Phoenix is steeped in the enigmatic culture of the ancient Celts who reigned over much of Europe three thousand years ago. It was a time when the bond with Nature was strong . . . when people walked in the olde ways . . . when women were the equals to men as warriors, priests, and poets.
The Celtic Phoenix is the journey of three women who rise from the ashes of their past like fearsome phoenixes to shake the rational foundations upon which Sherlock Holmes built his life and career.

About the Author – Kim Krisco
His lifelong fascination for master storyteller, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and his creation Sherlock Holmes, is what inspires Kim Krisco to write his new Sherlock Holmes mysteries.
As a reader, Kim always wished he’d learn more about Holmes’ inner life. Where Doyle was not able to do that in short stories, Kim could allow for more detail and in-depth character development in his novels and novellas.
Kim endeavours to capture the authentic feel of the Sherlock Holmes novels, placing them in historical settings, oftentimes interacting with real historical characters. This is what makes Kim’s Sherlock Holmes books unique historical mysteries.
Aside from writing, Kim and his wife Sara followed their dream to experience more profoundly the beauty of nature by surrounding themselves by it. Abandoning most of their material possessions, they feel happier than ever in their cabin deep in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains.

My Review:
The story finds Sherlock – having gone into retirement on the coast, receiving a mysterious package. The contents
Men who have wronged the women come up against the tribe and Murder ensues, not in favor of the male species. Holmes, Waston, Professor Augustus Stone – a friend and Professor in ancient studies and Tessa have to find the women before more deaths occur and that in London – even back in the victoria era, is not an easy task. Holmes, Watson, and Stone with Tessa at hand come together to take on this task using their skills and knowledge, an utterly thrilling tale combined with age-old characters including of course Holmes nemesis Moriarty plus some other strong female characters make for a compelling read.
A strong contender in the vain of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, a sure hit with any Sherlock fans out there, such
