Slight Trick of the Mind

A fresh novel about Sherlock Holmes, which is soon to be adapted into a major film. Set in 1947, it sees the long-retired Holmes, 93 and living in remote Sussex, revisit a case that may provide him with answers of his own to questions he didn't even know he was asking. The film will be directed by the Oscar-winning Bill Condon and will star Ian McKellan as Holmes. 'Wonderfully written and heartbreaking' }San Francisco Chronicle{
