Notes to the readers:

If you've gotten this far just let me tell you...THANK YOU! I have spent forever writing this story, taking notes from the original version, working out scenes, and trying to keep with character names that I'm glad people read my work. I also hope to get lots of reviews to help me. I have a couple things to say at this point...

For all you readers of the original Sherlock Holmes, which you all most likely are, you will realize that at this point the original Study in Scarlet , the story jumps to the past with the story of how Drebber and Strangerson became acquainted with their murderer and why they were marked for death. But as I am using the same method as Doyle used back in the day, I'm skipping over these chapters and moving back into the first person narrative. So I'm essentially skipping over all the back history and moving on with the story at hand. If you want to know that back history I suggest you read the original story but for this story it doesn't work.

I'm looking for editors to work on my piece and hopefully update it to look better. I'm not a very good editor and I'm looking for a people who would be willing to read my work and pick out all the little errors I have made. I've most likely made a lot but I would like someone else to look as I often miss them. Please Email me at if you are interested.

And last but not least, I'm working on a HOLMES AND WATSON website and all my stories will be posted there. I plan to keep going with the series, posting each story in turn as they were published by Conan Doyle. I hope you all will keep reading them. At the end of this piece I will post where you can visit the website and you all can see it yourself as well as some looks into the next story I'm working one:).

And now that we are done with that, on with the story!!!!
