A Case of Paternity
di Orlando Pearson
A chilling investigation into identity, power, and survival in the shadow of the Third Reich.
In the tense summer of 1935, Dr. Watson’s medical practice is interrupted by an unexpected visitor: Mycroft Holmes, bearing a request from Nazi Germany. A minor official accuses a high-ranking Luftwaffe administrator, Erhard Milch, of Jewish ancestry—a claim that could prove fatal under the Nuremberg Laws. Mycroft and Watson embark on a clandestine investigation to uncover the truth, navigating a web of racial obsession, bureaucratic cynicism, and startling pragmatism at the highest levels of the Third Reich. In a world where identity is a matter of life and death, the duo must decide where justice—and realpolitik—truly lie.
London businessman, Orlando Pearson is the creator of The Redacted Sherlock Holmes series, which buries forever the idea that Sherlock Holmes might not have been a historical person.
Do you want to see Sherlock Holmes come to the rescue of Queen Victoria, arrange the borders of post-war Europe, clear Macbeth of murder, unravel King Oedipus’s complexities, or provide advice to the Almighty? Then you will find all this and more in the seven collections of short stories, two novels, and the six plays in the series.
When not communing with the spirits of 221b, Orlando enjoys sport, music, and browsing price comparison websites.
He has written Sherlock Holmes stories on all these topics.
