What is A Sherlock Carol about?

Three long Christmases have passed since the events of Reichenbach Falls. Sherlock strolls the streets of Victorian London, with little desire for minced pies or solving crimes, until he is encountered by a grown Tim Cratchit, who believes that Ebenezer Scrooge has been met with foul play.

Something about the death doesn’t quite add up, a missing diamond, a threatening letter - but Sherlock is on the case! On this dark and ominous Christmas Eve, the night is heavy with spirits from the past, present and future, but can Sherlock overcome his own ghosts in order to solve the case?

Facts and critical acclaim

  • ★★★★ ‘A merry evening with a genial mashup of Dickens and Doyle’ - The Times, ★★★★ ‘Handsome and intelligent’ - Broadway World, ★★★★ ‘Delightful. A fresh festive mashup’ - The Guardian.
  • The first edition of A Christmas Carol, published in 1843, completely sold out within a few weeks. More than 30 million copies of the novella have been published since! (so hopefully there are no more Christmas shortages!) 
  • Despite being fictional, Sherlock Holmes, still receives countless letters a year asking for his help!
