Interesting and interesting engaging mashup

Bringing together Holmes in Quartermaine was a inspired choice. The narrative moves quickly and the characters are engaging.

Great story

As usual, I like Lovegrove’s Holmes, but kudos must be given to Kleinsman here for pronouncing those clicks!

Well done!

Always fun books to listen to. The reader does a great job with all the different characters

Lovegrove captures Holmes again.

If you enjoy Mashup stories and mystery this is one for you. Holmes and Watson meet with Allan Quatermain. Excitement and struggles are throughout the book and in the end Holmes solves the case.

BRILLIANT!

James Lovegrove & Dennis Kleinman have done it again!
This story has more harrowing and mysterious twists and turns the the great Amazon River.
Highly recommended!
Thank you.
