“The Servant Girl Annihilator” and a Solar Pons Essay
I have two short publications in Belanger Books publications that were released in the past few weeks. First, “The Servant Girl Annihilator” was published in the Belanger Books anthology Sherlock Holmes: A Year of Mystery 1886. It’s part of a series (starting in 1881) covering years when Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson were solving cases together, but Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote very few story set during those years. My story, “The Servant Girl Annihilator,” is based on a real-life serial killer who stalked Austin, Texas in 1884 and 1885. Set in January 1886, Holmes is asked by none other than the famous short story writer O. Henry to investigate the case… and the results aren’t what one might expect.
Also, Belanger Books has released the fourth issue of The Pontine Dossier: Millennium Edition. My essay “The Monographs of Solar Pons” is in it. If you’re a fan of Solar Pons, please take a look!
Chris Chan’s sequel to Sherlock’s Secretary, Nessie’s Nemesis, was published on September 3rd by MX Publishing. His novel Ghosting My Friend was released by Level Best Books on March 28th. His first novel, Sherlock’s Secretary, was released by MX Publishing, as was his anthology Of Course He Pushed Him and Other Sherlock Holmes Stories Volumes 1 & 2. His Agatha-nominated book Murder Most Grotesque: The Comedic Crime Fiction of Joyce Porter was published by Level Best Books. His first non-fiction book, Sherlock & Irene: The Secret Truth Behind “A Scandal in Bohemia” is available for sale at Amazon.com and the MX Publishing website, as well as at Book Depository (with free worldwide shipping there). It is also available in a Kindle edition.
