The House of Silk is a Sherlock Holmes novel written by British author Anthony Horowitz, published in 2011.

I’d say it’s better than any of the original books by Conan Doyle.

In a new case, Sherlock turns to the Baker Street Irregulars, street kids who work for Holmes as intelligence agents. 

The newest Irregular, a boy named Ross, is killed while staking out a cheap hotel.

Investigating that murder leads Sherlock into the House of Silk case.

The book is full of surprising twists and turns. Watson is a few steps behind, as usual. 😀
