Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Maybe it’s his knack for drawing lofty conclusions from minute observations, his enviable friendship with the loyal Dr. Watson, or simply his iconic fashion: a deerstalker hat, a cape, and a pipe. Whatever combination of qualities and characteristics — Sherlock Holmes is one of the most recognizable literary figures in the world.
This Saturday, The Poisoned Pen Bookstore in Scottsdale will bring Leslie Klinger and Laurie R King, editors of A Study in Sherlock, to the stage to discuss the collection of 18 stories inspired by the super sleuth.
The pair are a couple of Holmesian experts and will sit alongside contributing authors Thomas Perry, Dana Stabenow, and Jacqueline Winspear to sign books, answer questions, and talk all-things-Sherlock.
The contemporary authors in this collection of stories put Holmes in new situations and alternative histories that add to Sherlockian lore.
Get your fix this Saturday, November 19 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Poisoned Pen, 4014 N Goldwater Blvd in Scottsdale.
