Dr John Watson reveals his early life story ! Perfect for fans of Anne Hart, Vincent Starrett, Julian Symons and William S. Baring-Gould.

Who was John Watson before he met Sherlock Holmes…?

Victorian Britain

Sherlock Holmes fans can finally read the uncovered memoirs of Doctor John Watson’s life before he met the Great Sleuth.

Beginning in Scotland, Watson vividly recalls his tumultuous formative years and the family upheavals that would leave their mark on him forever.

His story takes us across four continents, from a boyhood trip to America to a nightmare experience in Gold Rush Australia, before he makes his mark in Afghan battlefields.

Returning to London, Watson falls in love with the theatre and ends up in more than a few ladies’ boudoirs…

But there is a special woman in his heart … and the mystery of a fatherless child.

What led Watson to his famous partner? How did his early life pave the way for his later career?

And how did he become the perfect companion for the enigma that is Sherlock Holmes…?

THE PRIVATE LIFE OF DR WATSON is a fictionalised autobiography that will thrill Sherlock Holmes fans, featuring exploits in Victorian London and the Afghan War.

neat story uses research for a BBC Holmes!

Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2016

Cool! Giving Master Watson, then Dr Watson lots of flesh - although not enough Afghan experience that we know he has.
Coincidentally a couple of days after finishing the novel, I saw the BBC Peter Cushing"The Boscombe Valley Mystery", which used the same research into the Australia chapters: TV libretto is done also by Hardwicke
A Sherlockian., Mr Hardwick also wrote a Sherlock memoir: Sherlock Holmes my life and crimes. Just arrived in our Amazon USPS... 😊

Interesting, but seemed to be a need to include some sensational aspects to make the book ineresting.
