Frank Thomas writes another very entertaining story. It is fast moving, and while having more characters than Doyle, really captures the flavour of the originals. There is less deduction than adventure, but then, how many modern pastiches do otherwise? Could be made into a great film in the hands of a decent director, wherever he or she may be.
