The Making of a Man: A Sherlock Holmes Mystery - Softcover

This extraordinary story unfolds in the dim streets of Victorian London's notorious East End. Poverty, squalor and crime fester and proliferate, blighting the lives of all who are unfortunate enough to dwell there. Yet from within the gloom, a random illumination- a beam of light. The light of human dignity; just sometimes, righteousness, decency and justice win out. In this dramatic play-out of the everlasting human conflict of good versus evil, various giants of their time, immortal beings, come into conflict. They form unlikely alliances, each presenting a differing prism of perception, different viewpoints of what is right and what is wrong; ultimately, what is Good and what is Evil.

Better known as an artist, John Worth has in recent years also turned to writing. With seven books completed, he is at present working upon the eighth. Beginning life in the central Australian gold-mining town of Meekatharra, Worth spent a varied young life kicking around the out-back bush country, fencing on the Rabbit Proof Fence, building bridges even lobster fishing. Later he traveled to Europe, studying art in Munich and London. He now lives and works in Brisbane.
