  Amy Thomas is a member of the Baker Street Babes Podcast, and the author of The Detective and The Woman mystery novels featuring Sherlock Holmes and Irene Adler. She blogs at girlmeetssherlock.wordpress.com, and she writes and edits professionally from her home in Fort Myers, Florida.

  Will Thomas is the author of seven books in the Barker and Llewelyn Victorian mystery series, including Some Danger Involved, Fatal Enquiry, and Anatomy of Evil. He was nominated for a Barry and a Shamus, and is a two time winner of the Oklahoma Book Award. He lives in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, where he studies Victorian martial arts and models British railways.

  Daniel D. Victor, a Ph.D. in American literature, is a retired high school English teacher who taught in the Los Angeles Unified School District for forty-six years. His doctoral dissertation on little-known American author, David Graham Phillips, led to the creation of Victor’s first Sherlock Holmes pastiche, The Seventh Bullet, in which Holmes investigates Phillips’ actual murder. Victor’s second novel, A Study in Synchronicity, is a two-stranded murder mystery, which features a Sherlock Holmes-like private eye. He is currently completing a trilogy called Sherlock Holmes and the American Literati. Each novel introduces Holmes to a different American author who actually passed through London at the turn of the century. In The Final Page of Baker Street, Holmes meets Raymond Chandler; in The Baron of Brede Place, Stephen Crane; in Seventeen Minutes to Baker Street, Mark Twain. Victor, who is also writing a novel about his early years as a teacher, lives with his wife in Los Angeles, California. They have two adult sons.

  Stephen Wade has a special interest in crime history, having published widely on regional crime. His book, The Girl who Lived on Air (Seren) was a Welsh Book of the Month for Waterstones last year. He was formerly a lecturer in English, and also worked as a writer in prisons for six years. His latest book is a short story collection, Uncle Albert (Priory Press). The current fiction project is a collection of crime stories featuring Lestrade.
