  <description><![CDATA[ Selling two million copies in earlier editions, this is the 2nd of the rediscovered Sherlock Holmes adventures. &quot;Acquired&quot; from a widow whose husband was descended from the distaff side of Holmes's family, this mystery finds Holmes solving a double murder in London's theater district. &quot;Don't miss it.&quot;--Cosmopolitan.<br/> The West End Horror: A Posthumous Memoir of John H. Watson, M.D. is a Sherlock Holmes pastiche novel by Nicholas Meyer, published in 1976. It takes place after Meyer's other two Holmes pastiches, The Seven-Per-Cent Solution &amp; The Canary Trainer, tho it was published in between the two.<br/> The plot concerns a series of strange murders in London's Theater District at the end of the 19th Century. Contrary to what the press has sometimes asserted, The West End Horror has nothing to do with (tho it arguably bears subtle references to) Jack the Ripper or his crimes.<br/> Altho this novel does not feature a dramatic action climax (unlike Meyer's other two pastiches), the mystery's dénouement may well affect many more people than those of Meyer's other adventures. It also includes a 1st meeting between the great detective &amp; Dr. Moore Agar, whose &quot;dramatic introduction to Holmes&quot; was one Watson, in the original Arthur Conan Doyle story &quot;The Adventure of the Devil's Foot&quot;, wrote that he &quot;may some day recount.&quot;<br/>]]></description>

    <![CDATA[ Selling two million copies in earlier editions, this is the 2nd of the rediscovered Sherlock Holmes adventures. &quot;Acquired&quot; from a widow whose husband was descended from the distaff side of Holmes's family, this mystery finds Holmes solving a double murder in London's theater district. &quot;Don't miss it.&quot;--Cosmopolitan.<br/> The West End Horror: A Posthumous Memoir of John H. Watson, M.D. is a Sherlock Holmes pastiche novel by Nicholas Meyer, published in 1976. It takes place after Meyer's other two Holmes pastiches, The Seven-Per-Cent Solution &amp; The Canary Trainer, tho it was published in between the two.<br/> The plot concerns a series of strange murders in London's Theater District at the end of the 19th Century. Contrary to what the press has sometimes asserted, The West End Horror has nothing to do with (tho it arguably bears subtle references to) Jack the Ripper or his crimes.<br/> Altho this novel does not feature a dramatic action climax (unlike Meyer's other two pastiches), the mystery's dénouement may well affect many more people than those of Meyer's other adventures. It also includes a 1st meeting between the great detective &amp; Dr. Moore Agar, whose &quot;dramatic introduction to Holmes&quot; was one Watson, in the original Arthur Conan Doyle story &quot;The Adventure of the Devil's Foot&quot;, wrote that he &quot;may some day recount.&quot;<br/>]]>

Watson, M.D. is a Sherlock Holmes pastiche novel by Nicholas Meyer, published in 1976. It takes place after Meyer's other two Holmes pastiches, The Seven-Per-Cent Solution &amp; The Canary Trainer, tho it was published in between the two.<br/> The plot concerns a series of strange murders in London's Theater District at the end of the 19th Century. Contrary to what the press has sometimes asserted, The West End Horror has nothing to do with (tho it arguably bears subtle references to) Jack the Ripper or his crimes.<br/> Altho this novel does not feature a dramatic action climax (unlike Meyer's other two pastiches), the mystery's dénouement may well affect many more people than those of Meyer's other adventures. It also includes a 1st meeting between the great detective &amp; Dr. Moore Agar, whose &quot;dramatic introduction to Holmes&quot; was one Watson, in the original Arthur Conan Doyle story &quot;The Adventure of the Devil's Foot&quot;, wrote that he &quot;may some day recount.&quot;<br/>]]>

    <![CDATA[ Selling two million copies in earlier editions, this is the 2nd of the rediscovered Sherlock Holmes adventures. &quot;Acquired&quot; from a widow whose husband was descended from the distaff side of Holmes's family, this mystery finds Holmes solving a double murder in London's theater district. &quot;Don't miss it.&quot;--Cosmopolitan.<br/> The West End Horror: A Posthumous Memoir of John H. Watson, M.D. is a Sherlock Holmes pastiche novel by Nicholas Meyer, published in 1976. It takes place after Meyer's other two Holmes pastiches, The Seven-Per-Cent Solution &amp; The Canary Trainer, tho it was published in between the two.<br/> The plot concerns a series of strange murders in London's Theater District at the end of the 19th Century. Contrary to what the press has sometimes asserted, The West End Horror has nothing to do with (tho it arguably bears subtle references to) Jack the Ripper or his crimes.<br/> Altho this novel does not feature a dramatic action climax (unlike Meyer's other two pastiches), the mystery's dénouement may well affect many more people than those of Meyer's other adventures. It also includes a 1st meeting between the great detective &amp; Dr. Moore Agar, whose &quot;dramatic introduction to Holmes&quot; was one Watson, in the original Arthur Conan Doyle story &quot;The Adventure of the Devil's Foot&quot;, wrote that he &quot;may some day recount.&quot;<br/>]]>
