Description
The notion was an odd one – Sherlock Holmes in retirement. That alert mind occupied by nothing more than catching a local schoolboy poaching! It was indeed an odd notion to Dr. Watson, who became worried that Holmes, without a challenging case, would soon be but a shadow of his former self.
A chance meeting took Holmes and Watson to Singapore for a well-deserved rest – a rest that was soon to be interrupted by murder …
John Hall spent many years in the civil service before becoming a professional writer specialising in crime fiction.
