Sample Chapter

The Adventures of Brigadier Gerard
When Sir Arthur Conan Doyle tossed Sherlock Holmes over the Reichenbach Falls, it was to replace him in the pages of The Strand with a French brigadier in Napoleon's army--a warrior who considered himself the bravest, handsomest, most skilled soldier in all of France. Enjoy the complete series of Gerard's adventures in this single volume. 246 pages; print or electronic. More Info and Contents
