Publisher's summary
Starring Sherlock Holmes, this tale is based on a real-life ghost story from West Virginia. The basis of the story comes from a court case in the 19th century in which the testimony of a ghost was entered into evidence, leading to the conviction of a murderer. Jonathan Maberry has thrown Holmes and Watson into the mix for added punch.
This story was originally published in the collection Tales from the Fire Zone.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Story
In the heart of the South Pacific lies Point Nemo, the most desolate and remote place on Earth. At its core is a dead zone, devoid of life, where government agencies crash their obsolete satellites and space stations, confident they won't harm a soul. When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.

Story
Midnight. Some call it the witching hour. Others call it the devil’s hour. Here in the graveyard, midnight is a very special time. It is a time when ghostly spirits are at their strongest, when the veil between our world and theirs is at its thinnest. Legend has it, that while most of the world is asleep, the lack of prayers allow the spirits to communicate under the cover of darkness, among the headstones, their whispers rustling in the leaves of the old oak trees. But if you’re here in the graveyard, you can tell yourself it’s just the wind....

Pleasantly surprised
I wasn’t sure if I would like this or not but I took a chance and I’m so glad I did. It was great to have a new story about Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. Especially one that has a little bit of spookiness to it. I think I’ve seen and read most everything there is from, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle regarding Sherlock Holmes. This author seems to really get how to write Sherlock and Dr. Watson. I’m so glad he is continuing on with the stories and bringing Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson back to life.

A Holmes and Watson mystery!
The Adventure of the Greenbrier Ghost
By: Jonathan Maberry
Narrated by: Tom Weiner
I didn't know this was a Sherlock & Watson book until it started. I also loved the cover. This has Holmes and Watson in the US and responding to a call of help from a ghost. A mother lost a daughter and the woman swears that the young woman's ghost come to her and tells her what happened, how she died. That the brutal husband killed her. Since Watson and Holmes neither believe in ghosts but they take the job of finding her killer anyway. Everyone thinks she just fell down the stairs.
Great shorter book and who doesn't love Holmes and Watson!

Worth listening to for free!
It was interesting and the price was right. But truth be told, I was drawn in because I thought it may have to do with The Greenbriar resort in West Virginia, which it doesn’t.

Not very suspenseful
The plot reads like it was planned by a precocious 9 year old who passed it on the a superb word artist. Well written with great dialog but the action is linear s as nd the characters flat.

It’s okay
It’s not like a normal Holmes tale, where he actually solves a mystery. Some details didn’t add up, which annoyed the Sherlock nerd in me, but for free, it was okay, and entertained me on my drive while running errands.
