- As you may know, Electronic Arts has recently released a computer
- game called "The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes," which has achieved
- critical success and been praised by Holmes aficianados as well.
-
- We intend to develop this into a larger product line, but in order
- to do this, it is essential not to have Holmes or Watson do anything
- which would be counter to their basic natures. Our question is this:
- what reference works, other than the Canon itself, should we consult?
- These should be the must-have works any serious Holmesian scholar
- would have, and be authoritative enough to be accepted by the
- Holmesian community generally.
-
- Can anyone provide advice?
