William Arrowood, the poor man's Sherlock Holmes, goes looking for a silent bride and finds a cesspool of corruption...with better detective work than the series kickoff and less emphasis on the hero's amusingly futile rivalry with Holmes., The exchanges between Arrowood and Barnett [are] witty, sometimes brutal, and, then, surprisingly moving., Fiercely edgy...Finlay captures the filth, frustration, and dark humor of the Victorian-era slum...Doyle's fans will be entertained., Fans of Sherlock Holmes might appreciate an alternate view of Victorian London from the perspective of people struggling to survive., Mick Finlay's atmospheric, detailed, singular London is a terrifying place I hope to return to again and again., Malk Williams deftly narrates an engaging Victorian mystery featuring the poor man's Sherlock Holmes...Williams imbues Arrowood with arrogance and intelligence and especially shines with varied voices. From lisps to subtle tonal shifts, he ensures that every character has a distinct, lively voice that's appropriate to the era and builds the atmosphere beautifully. The writing and the narration enhance each other to great effect, creating a dark but compelling take on the Victorian mystery. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award., Enthralling...Finlay casts Arrowood as an alternative Sherlock Holmes, who, instead of relying on physical clues and logic, focuses on the psychology of the people involved. This is a welcome grittier take on a familiar genre trope.

1896: A missing daughter. Three dead children. A sinister connection between a farm and an asylum.Arrowood must catch the killer before he strikes again - and before Sherlock Holmes or the police take the credit...Arrowood and his sidekick Barnett are struggling after the toll their last case took on them. They have an uneasy relationship with the local police, crime is running rampant and no one has money to pay their fees. Yet, when the desperate come calling, and Sherlock Holmes is crowing about his latest success, Arrowood can't help himself. He must solve the cases of the people who need he his help., Where Evil Lies Buried1896: Sherlock Holmes has once again hit the headlines, solving mysteries for the cream of aristocracy. But among the workhouses and pudding shops of South London, private detective William Arrowood is presented with far grittier, more violent and considerably less well-paid cases. Arrowood has no doubt who is the better detective, and when Mr. and Mrs. Barclay engage him to find their estranged daughter, Birdie, he's sure it won't be long before he and his assistant, Barnett, have tracked her down.But this seemingly simple missing-person case soon turns into a murder investigation. Far from the comfort of Baker Street, Arrowood's London is a city of unrelenting cruelty, where evil is waiting to be uncovered...
