Beyond THE GATE OF GOLD, awaits the Angel of Darkness...August, 1884. Dr. John H. Watson has seen some peculiar things in the course of his three years as the flat-mate to Mr. Sherlock Holmes, Consulting Detective of 221B Baker Street. Letters written in blood, a cursed Viking axe, even murders committed by venomous snake. But nothing could have prepared Dr. Watson for the extraordinary adventure which awaited him on the very edge of the civilized world. A letter arrives from Lucy Harrier, who Watson has not seen since their time together on Bermuda, pleading for his help. However, by the time Watson arrives in San Francisco, the worst has happened. Now it is up to him to solve the case - with Holmes thousands of miles away. There is no paucity of suspects - from the ireful step-uncle, to the foolish butler, to the acerbic housekeeper, to a series of suspicious characters in a local boarding-house. As the threats to Lucy Harrier mount, does an echo of her past hold the clue to her secret adversary? From Alcatraz Island to the Barbary Coast; from Chinatown to the Redwoods of Marin, Watson must wade through a forest of red herrings in order to stop a madman from striking again. Can Watson channel everything he has learned during his friendship with Sherlock Holmes into saving the woman that he loves? Or does he need some miraculous help from an unexpected source?Finally making sense of several apocryphal texts, THE GATE OF GOLD demonstrates the hidden strengths and profound wisdom of the good doctor. Herein lies the long-lost account of Dr. Watson's San Francisco adventure - where he strove for the greatest prize of all.
