Whatever Remains is a collection of six stories including one written by Holmes himself, one in which Watson solves the case whilst convinced Holmes is dead and lying at the bottom off the Reichenbach Falls and concludes with a later case in which Holmes is called eagerly out of bored retirement. As an added bonus, the collection also includes four of Watson’s poems.
The Flinders Case
Holmes and Watson’s first Christmas in Baker Street is interrupted (much to Watson’s relief) by a murder and kidnapping which quickly grows into something far more sinister.
Twelfth Night
On the last day of Christmas Holmes tells Watson an apparently true ghost story and in passing, reveals why he finds Christmas difficult.
The Pilkington Case
Combining work with a much-needed holiday, Holmes and Watson investigate the case of a man who believes he is being haunted by demon cats.
Extract from the Diary of John H Watson
Sworn to secrecy by Holmes, Watson recounts Holmes’ involvement in the case of Jack the Ripper.
Whatever Remains
After Holmes’ apparent death at the Reichenbach Falls and the very real death of his wife, Watson is recruited by Conan Doyle and Lestrade to investigate the activities of a medium who seems to be able to do the impossible.
The Scalp Collector
Called out of bored retirement in 1915, Holmes assists Detective Inspector Kidwell in his search for a serial killer who targets red haired women and collects grim souvenirs.
