Summary
Benedict Cumberbatch reads these four new Sherlock Holmes stories by John Taylor: 'An Inscrutable Masquerade', 'The Conundrum of Coach 13', 'The Trinity Vicarage Larceny' and 'The 10.59 Assassin'.
Inspired by Arthur Conan Doyle's original Sherlock Holmes stories, John Taylor has written four more mysteries featuring the world's greatest detective.
Read by acclaimed actor Benedict Cumberbatch, these new adventures share all the suspense of the original tales.
In a drawer in his bureau, Dr. Watson keeps a locked cedarwood chest - a 'box of secrets'.
It contains an archive of notes referring to some of Holmes' cases that, for one reason or another, never saw the light of day. Now, for the first time, Watson has decided to reveal the truth to the world....
In these four thrilling stories, Holmes experiments with the science of ballistics, locates some missing gold bullion, investigates the theft of a large amount of money and solves the baffling mystery of the Stovey murder.

How could it not be a winner?
As if Cumberbatch reading anything sherlockian could be anything but gold. Love it. The voice fits the cannon perfectly and its a really nice rainy day listen.

Too brief for the price
Loved listening to the voice of Benedict Cumberbatch; Great accents and tonalities.
The stories were too short for the price and my liking. They did not allow for plot development and came to a quick end which was a shame as the stories were good and could have been expanded on.

Some tonal inconsistency with Doyle's Holmes
They protagonists keep seeking beer like some 21st century booze hipsters. Holmes & Watson were partial to wine, sherry, brandy & coffee. Ale was the drink of the working class in the late 19th century.
Otherwise, the stories are a decent stab at Holmsian adventure, delivered impeccably by Cumberbatch.

Be prepared to be surprised!
Benedict Cumberbatch surprised me when I spend for the 10 first minutes trying to discover which was his voice! He changes so effortlessly between the voices that you forget what is his normal voice sound like! I wish audible would introduce him in even more books for him to narrate
