A fascinating book worthy of being associated with the title’s literary sleuth.

For fans of Michelle McNamara’s I’ll Be Gone in the Dark and other true crime works.” —Library Journal Some authors have written tales centred on characters from the canon other than Holmes. Anthologies edited by Michael Kurland and George Mann are entirely devoted to stories told from the perspective of characters other than Holmes and Watson. John Gardner, Michael Kurland, and Kim Newman, amongst many others, have all written tales in which Holmes's nemesis Professor Moriarty is the main character. Mycroft Holmes has been the subject of several efforts: Enter the Lion by Michael P. Hodel and Sean M. Wright (1979), [214] a four-book series by Quinn Fawcett, [215] and 2015's Mycroft Holmes, by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Anna Waterhouse. [216] M. J. Trow has written a series of seventeen books using Inspector Lestrade as the central character, beginning with The Adventures of Inspector Lestrade in 1985.

In her description of a case from July of 1925, the author has Heinrich using Luminol to discover blood. In a later chapter on a case from December of that same year, she mentions that the use of Luminol was still a decade in the future... So, um, which is it? (The latter. Its interaction with blood was discovered in 1928. Its first use in forensics occurred in 1937.) In 1988, the animated series Alvin and the Chipmunks aired an episode entitled "Elementary, My Dear Simon", which stars Simon as Holmes, Theodore as Watson, Alvin as Professor Moriarty, and Dave as Inspector Seville.

I'm not really sure what I should be taking from this book other than hoping someone else writes a better one about Heinrich so we can get a clearer understanding of what he did. a b Simpson, Aislinn (4 February 2008). "Winston Churchill didn't really exist, say teens". The Daily Telegraph. ISSN 0307-1235. Archived from the original on 10 January 2022 . Retrieved 30 December 2019. When the author, Kate Winkler Dawson, became interested in writing a book about Heinrich, she discovered that all his case files had been bequeathed to the University of California at Berkeley, where he taught forensic Science for thirty years, but had been left catalogued for over fifty years due to budget constraints. Winkler was able to persuade the University archivist to undertake the mammoth job of cataloguing the thousands of pieces of information in the collection and to open the collection to research. Heinrich kept everything from all his cases and his personal life – notes, letters, photographs, newspaper articles, even bullets and other evidence providing a rich treasure trove for a researcher.
