Our Next Novelette: “The Adventure of the Hidden Lane” by Max Jason Peterson

[duckprintspress]

I’m placing this sealed manuscript with my solicitors on instructions that it be published at least seventy years after my demise, when all the principals are long dead and any rumor has passed into family legend. I trust that one day this tale will be welcomed among the rest of my works.

So opens Max Jason Peterson’s novelette The Adventure of the Hidden Lane. Written in the style of a classic Sherlock Holmes story, with the framing of a lost story, this queer addition to the Holmes lexicon is a wonderful story, a great mystery, and perfect for us to announce on Sherlock Holmes Day!

Follow us on the social media platform of your choice and/or sign-up for our newsletter to be sure you’re among the first to hear when this novelette becomes available!

Peterson is also a fine artist, and this novelette will sport a selection of illustrations by Peterson, done in a style reminiscent of the art done by Sidney Edward Paget for the original Holmes stories.

I’m so excited to be reprinting this story (originally published in A Study in Lavender: Queering Sherlock Holmes) with Max’s all-new original illustrations. I hope you’ll join Duck Prints Press for this new, queer Holmes adventure!
