The fog, the mystery, the intrigue of 19th Century London, the incomparable team of Holmes and Watson, the brilliant deductions, the twisting plots, and the unimagined solutions—all these elements are accounted for in The Business of Baker Street, a collection of five new Sherlock Holmes stories. Each tribute tale respects the renowned style of Arthur Conan Doyle, and every story lures the listener into the entrancing world of Sherlock Holmes.
An innocent bank clerk driven to desperation by an ominous death threat, a viciously cruel and calculating barrister, a brilliant but hopelessly drug-addicted scientist, and a heartless woman obsessed with building a personal fortune, and a man torn between the loyalties of his past and the duties of his present— all these characters move across the Baker Street stage, finding peace, or prison, or death. These are new classic Holmes's tales told with abiding respect for the grand originals that enthralled readers for more than a century.
What price a few hours of genuine escape? Enjoy the licit pleasures of the pages and descend into spheres of criminal intrigues, human failings, poignant ironies, and Sherlockian justice.

This book was split into five short stories. I really enjoyed the writing style of this collection, and the way Holmes and Watson are portrayed. I particularly appreciated the moments when Watson has maybe more of a backbone than other writers might have given him in the same situations! And I live for the moments when Holmes faces down someone insulting him without breaking a sweat.
I also laughed out loud at the moment when Holmes has once again deduced something impossible about Watson, and instead of jumping into his usual “Holmes, however, did you know?!” routine, Watson tries to play it cool, and Holmes absolutely demolishes him. “It was a great day for the English theatre when you decided to become a doctor rather than pursue the thespian arts, Watson. Had you not done so, you and your lovely bride would surely have lived a life of destitution.” I laughed out loud! That was some of the funniest Holmes I've read in a while.
I do have to say, I was surprised that one of the villains was a femcel, but it worked for the story, so I have no criticisms there. And I appreciated the variety of content present between the five stories, some moments light hearted and others sobering and introspective.
Lastly, the narrator for the audiobook was very good! I would happily read/listen to more from this author.
