Between the Thames and the Tiber



by Theodore Riccardi, 317 pages

This is a collection of Sherlockiana set after Sherlock Holmes "retired". It is again narrated by Watson, but now the duo divide their time between foggy London and sunny Rome, hence the title.

Like the originals by Conan Doyle, this volume contains several stories. While the further exploration of the characters was enjoyable, I didn't seem to find much real detection going on. More like a series of vignettes than real adventures. Charming, but a little light and frothy.
