The Royal Bachelor
di Orlando Pearson
When a king chooses love over duty, only Mycroft Holmes can save the throne.
In the tense winter of 1936, with the British monarchy facing its gravest crisis in centuries, the government turns once more to Mycroft Holmes. King Edward VIII is determined to marry Wallis Simpson, a twice-divorced American, risking the unity of the Empire and the Church. Mycroft must navigate a labyrinth of royal secrecy, blackmail, and delicate statecraft to prevent a scandal that could shatter the Crown. From the drawing rooms of Windsor to the archives of the Royal Physician, he orchestrates a dangerous game where the fate of a king—and the future of a nation—hangs in the balance.
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.
