Perfect for you if...

You love mysteries with locked room puzzle elements and playful plots that don't take themselves too seriously.
You enjoy mid-century Hollywood settings and the collision between fandom and real crime.
You appreciate authors who blend genre expertise with wit, especially those who know their detective fiction inside out.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer straightforward procedurals where the investigation unfolds in a linear, predictable way.
You want gritty modern crime fiction rather than clever, farcical takes on mystery conventions.
You're looking for a serious exploration of Sherlock Holmes lore rather than a comedic riff on his legacy.

About this book

When Metropolis Pictures announces plans to film an Arthur Conan Doyle classic, it provokes outrage from the Baker Street Irregulars, a group of Sherlock Holmes fans. To address their protest, the studio invites five members to serve as advisors on the film and hosts a celebration at a house numbered 221B. Los Angeles police detective A. Jackson attends the party hoping to spend his night off with his brother Paul, a famous actor. Instead, he becomes entangled in an unusual murder case involving cryptograms and a disappearing corpse. The investigation unfolds with unexpected twists throughout.
