your ordinary Sherlock Holmes story, this novella presents Holmes
taking care of the time-traveling Jennifer. She literally drops at his
feet, from out of nowhere. He finds the woman intriguing and a wondrous
diversion from his life of poverty and solitude. The fact that she
claims she travels thru time is surprising, yet not unfamiliar.
Jenny knew how chaotic time travel was, but she didn't expect to find
that Sherlock Holmes existed. But in her own words - "She accepted that
there was no wall between truth and fiction, history and story. The two
bumped up against each other, swapped DNA, fell apart, came back
together... None of it made a lick of sense."
Chasing a jewel thief seems a simple mission, but secrets bring
complications. Layer by layer, she reveals a painful past that could see
Holmes fail to redeem his reputation. She wants to help, but is
frightened at responsibility for another person. His strengths come to
light, practicing patience and understanding far beyond what she thought
the literary character capable of. But this England isn't what she
supposes, and he isn't the person Conan Doyle created. Preconceptions
are a trap she falls into again and again. Only by seeing the man in
front of her will she discover how much she can trust him.
Together, she and Holmes will discover the truth of needing people and
finding a place to belong.
