Summary

We live in a world overflowing with noise, yet aching for depth.
 
These thirty stories are quiet meditations wrapped in narrative.Each tale is a cup filled with metaphor—sometimes sweet, sometimes bitter, sometimes shattered.
 
You will walk through ruined taverns, whisper to mirrors, carry fire in your hands, and stand before the sky with nothing but a question.
 
These stories are not linear—they are circles of emotion.They may not resolve, but they will echo.
 
Read slowly.Let silence do its work.Let a story find its meaning within you.
 
Because in the end, the real story isn’t the one I’ve written—It’s the one you remember after the last page.
Available since: 07/23/2025.

    YOUNG SHERLOCK HOLMES & JOHN WATSON 
    The case of the stolen Pianoforte. 
    This completely new story I have written involves the 10 year old boys who will be the great detective Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson, his assistant, when they grow up, this is their formative years where they perfect their skills before adulthood on what my appear to be inconsequential subjects, but the principle remains the same. 
    This is just one of an extensive series I will be publishing as audio books in the very near future and I do hope you enjoy this first one, and its only $1.25 cents, all subsequent will remain at that price as I would not like price to be a barrier to your enjoyment. 
    I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 minutes sets the scene, so to speak, a violin Holme's musical instrument of choice and is energetic and the closing music ends the tale on a more restrained mode and only about 1 minute. 
    The story itself runs to about 5 minutes 30 seconds and is of course a short story, it is read in my own voice. 
    The story involves the the disappearance of a PianoForte piano used to teach the son, Marmaduke, the son of a wealthy industrialist called Sir Edwin Warwick who lives in a grand mansion within sight of Buckingham Palace in London in the late 1900's. Marmaduke had grown weary of piano lessons and arranged for two older boys to take it away unbeknown to his father. 
    Needless to say Holmes solves the mystery, recovers the piano back to Sir Edwin and is handsomely rewarded and goes onto his next case. 
    The stories are designed to be entertaining to children of approximately the same age around 10 years old due to the characters involved. 
    I do hope you and you children, if applicable, enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come!
