Summary
Struggling to cope with life after Reichenbach, John is gravely injured during a vicious, apparently motiveless street attack. Convalescing, on Mycroft’s invitation, at the Holmes family seat, John encounters someone entirely unexpected and uncovers an intriguing seventeen year-old mystery. Things hot up as John finds himself battling to work out the solution before James Moriarty’s legacy catches up with him – and also rekindling a love affair that was never really given the chance to blossom.
Mystery, murder and mayhem together with love, romance and the return of the absent Sherlock in an enigma that will keep you on your toes until the very end.

The (complete) long-running weekly serial/spicy 🔥 Sandrock ensemble where you can tune into town gossip, learn why Larry loves Xena, meet Owen's folks, laugh, cry, and contemplate Cooper’s toes. Or: a quasi-sci-fi, town-sprawling, oft-imitated-never-duplicated yakboy romcom, featuring all your favorite Sandrock characters and also all the other ones. Yes, all of them. As one daring reader calls it: “...consistently entertaining for free!”
Includes occasional issues of Cryptid Monthly!
Begins with an alternate take on "Cornered Beasts" and lingers elsewhere and beyond, focusing on Logan and his builder, Vee. Spoilers & wild speculation about the Free Cities abound. Explicit. Finito.
