Summary

Giallo - collection (31 pagine) - In the shadowy corridors of power, where justice bends to statecraft and truth is a pawn in the game of empires, Mycroft Holmes faces his greatest moral dilemma. 
 
 
 
When the President of France secretly enlists Mycroft Holmes to manage the explosive fallout of Captain Alfred Dreyfus’s treason trial, Mycroft sees a chance to stabilize a nation on the brink. But Sherlock Holmes, summoned by Dreyfus’s desperate brother, uncovers evidence of a shocking frame-up. As the brothers clash over truth versus political expediency, a web of forgery, prejudice, and high-stakes espionage unravels. In this gripping retelling of history’s most infamous miscarriage of justice, the fate of a man, a country, and the Holmes brothers’ own legacy hangs in the balance. 
 
 
 
London businessman, Orlando Pearson is the creator of The Redacted Sherlock Holmes series, which buries forever the idea that Sherlock Holmes might not have been a historical person. 
Do you want to see Sherlock Holmes come to the rescue of Queen Victoria, arrange the borders of post-war Europe, clear Macbeth of murder, unravel King Oedipus’s complexities, or provide advice to the Almighty? Then you will find all this and more in the seven collections of short stories, two novels, and the six plays in the series. 
When not communing with the spirits of 221b, Orlando enjoys sport, music, and browsing price comparison websites. 
He has written Sherlock Holmes stories on all these topics.
Available since: 02/03/2026.
Print length: 31 pages.

    When her grandmother suffers a nasty fall and asks for help managing the family business, coffee-addicted single mother Veronica Blackthorne moves her sixteen-year-old rom-com-obsessed daughter to Mystic Hollow, Connecticut. Veronica is ecstatic to return to New England, but when she arrives, she quickly finds out that Mystic Hollow Books, her grandmother’s pride and joy, needs more than a little TLC. 
    Hoping to save the bookstore from a big-box rival, Veronica enlists her sometimes mentor and sometimes crush, Adam Whitford, a controversial but popular author, as the keynote speaker to kick off a literary festival that will hopefully bring in a new wave of customers.

    As the local sheriff investigates his murder, Veronica decides to take matters into her own hands to solve the case and clear her name.

    WHAT DO NORTH KOREAN NUKES, SOMALI PIRATES, HELICOPTERS, JET AIRPLANES, SUBMARINES, AIRCRAFT CARRIERS, AND SAVANNAH HAVE IN COMMON? ANSWER: CAJUN  
    Ethan Breaux, call sign Cajun, has been flying charters out of Bristol, England for two years. His life as a civilian pilot has been going very well after many years of flying Special Ops missions in Army helicopters. Cajun is sought out by the CIA to coordinate then execute a super clandestine military style operation into Mogadishu, Somalia to retrieve a North Korean nuclear weapon hijacked by Pirates at the behest of Hezbollah Islamic terrorist.  
    He reluctantly agrees to take on the dangerous mission only after learning that Savannah, the love of his life, is being held on the outskirts of Ethiopia. She is a nurse and has been taken along with an Ethiopian nurse by Somali Islamic soldiers to treat their wounded.  
    Cajun brings together all his Special Operations buddies from the old days. The U.S. Government provides everything needed in the way of military helicopters because the U.S. cannot set foot back in Somalia after the failed Battle of Mogadishu of 1993. The story moves from England to Oman, then into the Cradle of Mankind in the depths of darkest Africa.  
    The realism in the execution of multiple military skirmishes involving air to ground firefights could only be written by someone who has pulled the trigger.

    This is a story of high-tech vigilante justice. It was inspired by a steamy tropical atmosphere, cold drinks, and lithe, sweaty bodies. It's the story of how the temptation to deliver justice overcame common sense and perhaps whatever common decency I once had. But then, betrayal for a worthy cause can taste mighty sweet.

    In a nation fractured by ideology and faith, one woman’s quiet strength becomes her greatest weapon. 
    Tracy Kincaid has spent her life rebuilding from the pieces others left behind. Haunted by betrayal and loss, she searches for meaning in a world where forgiveness is preached more easily than practiced. Along her journey, she meets those who will test her resolve — and one woman who will teach her that healing isn’t about forgetting, but learning to live with the truth. 
    From the creator of Nazi America comes a powerful story of resilience, faith, and the fragile beauty of redemption. 
    Tracy is a testament to the human spirit — how it breaks, how it heals, and how, even in the darkest world, light can still find its way through.
