Since he first appeared in the 1887 Beeton’s Christmas annual A Study in Scarlet, a great deal has been written about Arthur Conan Doyle’s legendary character, the consulting detective Sherlock Holmes. Now, for the first time, Raymond G. Farney offers a concise, case-by-case compendium of these Sherlockian adventures. In an easy-to-read format, Farney presents a study of each Sherlock Holmes novel and short story. Each case is broken down in a similar format, covering fast facts on the publication, the plot, and the outcome of the story itself. The studies include information such as Characters, Crime, Victim, Crime Scene, Timeline, Evidence & Clues, and, of course, Holmes’ own Observations & Deductions. A Study in Sherlock is a comprehensive treasure trove of Holmesian information—and a must-read for any Holmes aficionado! RAYMOND G. FARNEY is a retired business owner who designed and built new residential homes at the New Jersey shore and since childhood an avid reader of Sherlock Holmes stories.

When her best friend commits suicide on discovering she was HIV-positive, Core Fletcher, an attractive journalist, decides to investigate the validity of the publicly accepted theory of the cause of AIDS. Using her skills in reporting and scientific research, she begins her investigation in the institutions of healthcare, government and the media, to which the public has delegated all handling of the problem. Uncovering a tangle of fears, taboos, myths, greed, lust for power and privilege according to caste, she discovers that virtually everything the public has been told about AIDS is false, and is known to be false at the highest levels of Government, including the Department of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health, and Centers for Disease Control. HIV is not in fact the cause of AIDS, and some scientists, despite severe obstacles, are exposing the biggest scientific, medical blunder of all time.
