Prizewinning author Stewart Ross has written over 350 books, fiction and nonfiction, for children and adults. His enthusiasm for the detective of 221b Baker Street recently manifested itself in a collection of new Sherlock Holmes stories, Solve It Like Sherlock. While working on this book, he was inspired to write shortened versions of Conan Doyle's famous tales that are easy to read yet maintain the tone and spirit of the originals.
