Description
He took on Sherlock Holmes and lost. Now he wants revenge.
In 1888, Sherlock Holmes slayed the spectral hound haunting the Devonshire moor, laying to rest the curse of the Baskervilles once and for all. The perpetrator escaped into the night and was presumed drowned, consumed by the murky bog...
In truth, the criminal mastermind survived the night to nurse his wounds and plot his revenge against Sherlock Holmes.
A MAN NAMED BASKERVILLE recounts the life and times of Rodger Baskerville, exiled heir to the esteemed family's fortune. His journal records his adventures from the Amazon rainforests to the beaches of Costa Rica to Victorian England, where he attempts to take his rightful place at Baskerville Hall. Along the way, he peels back the layers of family secrets and scandals untold in Dr. Watson's account of the demonic hound haunting the Baskervilles.
It's a rousing adventure, from start to finish. What's more—it's a Sherlock Holmes story unlike any you've read before.
Available in ebook and paperback.
Advance Praise
“One of the best Holmes-related books I read in the past year was called A Man Named Baskerville, by Jim Nelson … Very polished writing with an excellent sense of voice. I would call it a page turner.” – Jane Rubino, author of Hidden Fires
“Nelson’s style is convincing and engaging, and places his novel firmly shoulder-to-shoulder with the Sherlock Holmes canon. The attention to detail and careful references to the established course of events are striking, and the character of Baskerville is portrayed with startling humanity.” – My Murmuring Bones
"The writing style was eloquent and brought the feeling of Victorian era novels. … Jim Nelson is a new author to me but I would love to read more of his writing. I would recommend this for any Doyle fans or classic readers out there.” – Kay’s Hidden Shelf
