Dearest Sherlockians,

I am writing to let you know about the publication of the first novel by The Real Sherlock Holmes of Edinburgh.

Entitled 'Carter, the cabman' and written by Toby Virgo who many of you will have met as your guide during your walking tour of Edinburgh, the book is set during London's infamous Autumn of Terror of 1888 and tells the story of a night in the life of a hansom cab driver working in London during the time of the Jack the Ripper murders. If you like your stories shrouded in fog with the sound of passing carriages clattering over the cobbles and a crescent moon poking out from behind the clouds above a dark and brooding River Thames (I'm guessing that some of you do) then this is definitely the book for you.
