Author Notes & Acknowledgements


Dedicated to my Mother & Father

my heartfelt thanks to:

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle for bringing Sherlock to life.

Matt Porter for the wonderful illustrations, for thinking visually,
for helping to make dreams come true, for being a real friend and for always being there.

Aunt Sunny (Sonia Forman) for the countless hours of correcting my
sub-childish punctuation, grammar and spelling. For encouragement, support and for a lifetime of love.

Jack Tracy for his invaluable book The Encyclopedia Sherlockiana

Tom Katen for being my philosophy teacher, for the kind words and encouragement, for teaching me to forget everything I knew, and for turning me on to "digging deep thought".

Jerremy Brett for being Sherlock and for being the voice in my brain as I had the honour of making Sherlock speak.

The countless friends who gave advise and support.

To everyone who loves Sherlock Holmes.

The Adventure Of The Turning Century was largely inspired by events in the stories The Red-Headed League and The Adventure Of Charles Augustus Milverton  and fits in chronologically as shown.

I'd love to hear from the readers and I'll do my best to respond to all.
