About this title

Review

"Think Sherlock Holmes meets Huck Finn with a bit of Treasure Island and Peter Pan thrown in for good luck. What a fun read and a great adventure. I loved all three and couldn't put them down." Robert Rotenberg, author of the best-selling novel, Stranglehold

"These "lost" diaries of the young Arthur Conan Doyle is a must read for all mystery lovers, and destined to be an important part of the Sherlock Holmes canon. Prepare to tear through the pages and enjoy trying to figure out what is fictional and what is fact. What a riveting story!" Layton Green, author of the best-selling Dominic Grey series
