Author Description

When Sherlock Holmes goes missing, Dr. John Watson turns to PI Bram Farrell, aka The Raven, to locate and possibly rescue the world's only consulting detective. Not that Bram lives in Victorian London. He's a Detroit guy. But the world they inhabit is wonky. All it takes is a visit to a bar -- particularly The Protagonist's Gate, better known as The Hero's Rest, or the Antagonist's Lair to cross from one era or land to another -- it all depends upon with whom you leave the bar. All of which allows Bram to call on Holmes' Baker Street Irregulars, a dark elf, and Hansel's favorite sister, Grethel, to assist in the search for the missing man.Fortunately, Bram has some handy magic to assist when unwanted confrontations arise.
