About this product

Product Information

1895 London is scared. A killer haunts the city's streets; the poor are hungry; crime bosses are taking control; the police force is stretched to the breaking point. The rich turn to Sherlock Holmes, but the celebrated private detective rarely visits the densely populated streets of South London, where the crimes are sleazier and the people are poorer. In the dark corner of Southwark, victims turn to a man who despises Holmes, his wealthy clientele and his showy forensic approach to crime: Arrowood--self-taught psychologist, occasional drunkard and private investigator. When a man mysteriously disappears and Arrowood's best lead is viciously stabbed before his eyes, he and his sidekick Barnett face their toughest quest yet: to capture the head of the most notorious gang in London... In the bestselling tradition of Anthony Horowitz and Andrew Taylor, this gloriously dark crime debut will haunt readers long after the final page has been turned.

Reviews
"The Victorian workingman's answer to the higher-class Sherlock Holmes-a foul-mouthed, hard-drinking, shabby detective with a seriously bad attitude toward his more famous counterpart.... It's a terrific premise... Finlay has fun referencing the Holmes canon, and he gives his hero a skill that the more famous detective lacks" -The Seattle Times (Summer's Hottest Crime Titles Round Up) "If you ever thought the Sherlock Holmes stories might benefit from being steeped in gin, caked in grime and then left unwashed for weeks...Mick Finlay's 1895-set detective debut is for you." --Crime Scene "How I loved this book. Arrowood is an almost infuriatingly absorbing, awkward and brilliant character. I wanted to start his next mystery with him as soon as I'd finished his first. More than that, Arrowood feels strangely like he's always existed, we're only now being treated to an introduction. Mick Finlay's atmospheric, detailed, singular London is a terrifying place I hope to return to again and again." - Ross Armstrong, bestselling author of The Watcher "Arrowood is a flawed but engaging hero and the plot spins from peril to twist and back with real panache.... Finlay's debut marks the start of a new series that historical crime fans will be clamouring to read more of." --The Times of London "Finlay debuts with a tale built on a wonderful premise: a downscale Sherlock Holmes for the rest of us... Finlay has a fine time recasting the friendship between Holmes and Watson, as Arrowood and Barnett repeatedly quarrel, swap obscenities and threats, and pummel each other." -Kirkus Reviews "Fiercely edgy... Finlay captures the filth, frustration, and dark humor of the Victorian-era slum, plopping the reader into the story among the odoriferous, life-encrusted characters... Doyle's fans will be entertained." -Booklist "A plausible alternative to Sherlock Holmes... [with a] reputation for muckraking." -Publishers Weekly "Fans of Sherlock Holmes might appreciate an alternate view of Victorian London from the perspective of people struggling to survive." -Library Journal Named one of the TOP 12 MYSTERY NOVELS OF 2017 by The Strand Magazine., "Arrowood is a flawed but engaging hero and the plot spins from peril to twist and back with real panache." --The Times of London

  • Arrowood and Sherlock Holmes

    This is a good entry in the late Victorian detective genre with compelling characters and a concise story line. It takes place in a world where Holmes is real, and everyone reads Watson's stories. Several times, Arrowood attacks the conclusions Holmes reaches in some of his cases. He does not think much of Holmes. That being said, I wanted more of Arrowood and Holmes interaction. The detection Arrowood does is straight forward investigating and doesn't really do very much "deduction." But overall, a very good read, and I look forward to the next installment.
