Resumen del Editor

In this thrilling supernatural mystery, Sherlock Holmes and Count Dracula must join forces to banish a terrible enemy.

Sherlock Holmes is dead. His body lies in a solitary grave on the Sussex Downs, England. But Dr. Watson survives and is now given permission to release tales in Sherlock’s “classified dossier”, those cases that are, dear listener, unbelievable - for their subject matter is of the most outré and grotesque nature.

In this thrilling first installment of The Classified Dossier, a Transylvanian nobleman called Count Dracula arrives at Baker Street seeking the help of Sherlock Holmes, for his beloved wife, Mina, has been kidnapped.

But Dracula is a client like no other, and Holmes and Watson must confront - despite the wild, unbelievable notion - the existence of vampires. And before long, Holmes, Watson, and their new vampire allies must work together to banish a powerful enemy growing in the shadows.

Fun mash up

I enjoyed this mash up of genres. It felt very true to both and fun.

Unexpected but decent

One of the biggest elements of the story wasn’t one I liked, but overall a decent story.

Wonderful twist on the two tales

This was a really great book that was completely unexpected and the telling of the story. It was such an enjoyable story to listen to. I didn't want it to end!

Well worth your time

An enjoyable romp with a few twist and turns but always at a good pace.

Just go with it… Fun!!!

If you’re a fan of Sherlock & Watson and love Dracula you’ll have fun with this book. Just go with it and enjoy. The narrator did a good job.. Holmes is a bit different but Watson and Dracula are perfect.

Chilling and Terrifyingly Perfect

What a read! I enjoyed this one and the tying of a case between Count Dracula and Sherlock Holmes.

With Dr. Watson and his wife, Mary, becoming vampires, there is a twist to this book, and I am interested to see if anything continues in future reads. But as this book continues, Mary goes into a darker mode, whereas Dr. Watson can continue much as before, with a few modifications to his daily diet.

There are some twists in this book that I do not feel I can share without giving away a spoiler, but this is worth a read! If you are a fan of Bram Stoker's Dracula, you will enjoy this deliciously chilling read!

Very Entertaining

The idea of putting two of the best known literary characters in history is either brilliant or absurd. This book falls into the really cleverly done aspect with just the slightest hint of silliness. Once you get past the premise idea, you're in for an exciting read. I thoroughly enjoyed this books. Kudos to the author. Well done I say!

incredible story, lackluster reader

this was an incredible twist on the Sherlock home story. The narrator however, was really off. it just sounded weird. it's worth it for the story, but you really had to get over the reader a bit.

I wanted to like it more

Concept sounded great. Dracula is one of my all time favorite novels, and Sherlock Holmes is one of my favorite characters. But it seemed as if Dracula could have been removed completely and they'd have ended up with the same story.
And, for me, there were a few too many side plots. It dragged and didn't seem to be as connected as the author had hoped. Did I hate it? No. Was I expecting different? Yes. It lacked the excitement the title seemed to offer.

Very entertaining

Really enjoyed how Christian load out the story. Very well done. Looking forward to more in the future.
