Mike's early interest in all things Victorian led to a university degree in English and research on Thomas Carlyle from which he rebounded into writing mostly humour. His first books were a series of Sherlock Holmes pastiches featuring schoolboy Winston Churchill as the cuckoo in the nest at 221b Baker Street - now available as a box set. A novel and six collections of traditional Sherlock Holmes themed short stories followed, and he is working on further volumes. His recent novel in which Holmes and Watson are on the trail of the two fiends who stalked London in 1888, Jack the Ripper and the Thames Torso murderer, won second prize in the annual Ripperology Books competition. His coming-of-age novel set in London in 1963 - Hamlet and Me - is based on his working-class, Anglo-Irish upbringing. A novel set in Rome in 575 AD reflects his interest in early Christianity and all things Roman, and a comedy based on the aftermath of the 2016 US presidential election was informed by his annual railroad odyssey around and across the United States on Amtrak. The 8th in his Sherlock Holmes short story collection, Sherlock Holmes: The Tesla Tele-automaton and other Stories is available on Amazon.
