About this ebook

Cryogenicist Dr Georgette Watson has mastered the art of bringing frozen hamsters back to life. Now what she really needs is a body to confirm her technique can save human lives. Meanwhile, in New York City, winter is closing in, and there's a killer on the loose, slaying strangers who seem to have nothing in common. Is it simple good fortune that Georgette, who freelances for the NYPD, suddenly finds herself in the company of the greatest detective of all time? And will Sherlock Holmes be able to save Dr Watson in a world that has changed drastically in 200 years, even if human nature has not?

Ratings and reviews

Warner has written an excellent crime novel with great twists and turns. Just as the main character, Georgette Watson, physically revives Sherlock Holmes, Warner beautifully brings him back to life in this warm, funny and riveting novel. One for Holmesian fans, as well as all crime novel aficionados.

Love the writing. fast paced with plenty of twists and plot turns. great read.

Very entertaining crime fiction
