Join us as we explore Sherlock Holmes Into the Fire, a new, two-volume collection that reimagines Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Gothic tales through the lens of Sherlock Holmes. Our guest Margie Deck discusses how Doyle's eerie, atmospheric stories — often overshadowed by Sherlock Holmes — reveal the author's deeper fascination with mystery, psychology, and the supernatural. 

We talk about the creative process behind pairing each original tale with a modern Holmesian retelling, the challenges of preserving Gothic dread while introducing rational deduction, and how contributors balanced Doyle's voice with their own. Our conversation sheds light on what might be lost and gained when the world's greatest detective steps into the shadows of Conan Doyle's darker imagination — and why these stories continue to inspire new interpretations more than a century later.

Once again, we give you a glimpse of Sherlockian society activities, this time in the second half of December in "The Learned Societies" segment. Madeline Quinones is back with "A Chance of Listening," and the Canonical Couplet quiz tests your Sherlock Holmes knowledge, with a copy of Sherlock Holmes Into the Fire for the winner.
