It is the spring of 1895, and more than a decade of combating eldritch entities has cost Dr. John Watson his beloved wife Mary, and has nearly broken the health of Sherlock Holmes. Yet the companions do not hesitate when they are called to the infamous Bedlam lunatic asylum, where they find an inmate speaking in R’lyehian, the language of the Old Ones. Moreover, the man is horribly scarred and has no memory of who he is. The detectives discover that he was once a scientist, a student of Miskatonic University, and one of two survivors of a doomed voyage down the Miskatonic River.

Amelia Scarcliffe’s monstrous brood, harbingers of Cthulhu, will soon spawn. Her songs spell insanity, death...and illimitable wealth. And Moriarty will do anything to get his hands on gold, even if it means tearing down the walls between this world and a realm of horrors. Meanwhile, after Sherlock Holmes’s last tangle with the Order of Dagon, horrifying monsters haunt the Thames, and madness stalks the streets of Whitechapel. Gang war between Moriarty’s thugs and the powerful cult can only bring more terror - unless Holmes and Dr. Watson can prevent it.

Sherlock Holmes is an unparalleled genius who uses the gift of deduction and reason to solve the most vexing of crimes. Warlock Holmes, however, is an idiot. A good man, perhaps; a font of arcane power, certainly. But he's brilliantly dim. Frankly, he couldn't deduce his way out of a paper bag. The only thing he has really got going for him are the might of a thousand demons and his stalwart flatmate. Thankfully, Dr. Watson is always there to aid him through the treacherous shoals of Victorian propriety.

Publisher's Summary
The stunning novel from the New York Times best-selling author of The Age of Odin, in which the worlds of Arthur Conan Doyle and H.P. Lovecraft collide
It is the autumn of 1910, and for 15 long years, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson have battled R’lluhloig, the Hidden Mind that was once Professor James Moriarty. Europe is creeping inexorably towards war, and a more cosmic conflict is nearing its zenith, as in a single night all the most eminent members of the Diogenes Club die horribly, seemingly by their own hands. Holmes suspects it is the handiwork of a German spy working for R’lluhloig, but his search for vengeance costs an old friend his life.
The companions retreat to Holmes’s farm on the Sussex Downs, and it is not long before a client comes calling. Three young women have disappeared from the nearby town of Newford, and the locals have no doubt who is responsible. For legend has it that strange amphibious creatures dwell in a city on the seabed, coming ashore every few centuries to take fresh captives. As Holmes and Watson seek out the terrifying interlopers, the scene is set for the final battle that will bring them face to face with the Sussex Sea-Devils, and perhaps with Cthulhu himself....

BRILLIANT! MY DEAR WATSON!
So! As a big fan of both Lovecraft & Sherlock I think the author has done a fantastic job of bringing them both together. And as for the narrator. Well done sir! I think you have nailed it. thank you both for a job well done.

Shokushu Holmes
Highly-entertaining conclusion to James Lovegrove's Holmes / Cthulhu mash-up trilogy. Here the narrative sets course through a tinderbox pre-WW1 Europe before taking to the high seas and the non-Euclidean geometry of dread R'lyeh, all in a fast-paced attempt to thwart the sinister machinations of a now deific Professor Moriarty. Holmes (and, increasingly, Lovecraft) pastiches are ten-a-penny but this is hugely enjoyable and well-written (I'd previously read one of Lovegrove's steampunk-flavoured Holmes novels and had been non-plussed; it seems the addition of tentacular cosmic horror galvanises his efforts). Clearly a talented writer, Lovegrove nods to both Doyle and Lovecraft's authorial voices, yet this most resembles the rip-roaring Boys Own style of John Buchan, which, intentional or not, works surprisingly well in balancing both elements together. The narration is excellent, too.

It wasn’t quite Sherlock Holmes
The trilogy didn’t quite capture the spirit for me. I think it was the terminology used throughout. And the final chapter with the author losing his mind was nonsensical. Kinda ruined what wasn’t amazing to start with.
