|
Sherlock Holmes’ Nemesis Bestselling British novelist John Gardner published two books purporting to be the true history of Professor James Moriarty, archenemy of Sherlock Holmes, the Napoleon of crime. The books – The Return of Moriarty and The Revenge of Moriarty – were praised as stand-alone volumes set in a vividly accurate Victorian London and a stunning vision of the underworld of the time, inhabited by the kind of men and women who lived and preyed on the society of the late 19th century. Now it is the turn of the century and Moriarty has been away from London for several years, realizing his plans to set up crime syndicates in major U. S. cities. He is suddenly called back to London where his vast criminal society has been overrun by a rival concern led by the shadowy Sir Jordan ‘Mad Jack’ de Levant – a supposed gentleman hoodlum who is acting on behalf of the leaders of well-known criminal elements in France, Italy, Spain and Germany. Moriarty lives again and revolts against the upstart criminals who have attempted to oust him from his rightful place as king of all criminal endeavour. |

Welcome to the re-launch of It has been a year since John died, and we apologise that the site has been’ Under Construction’ for such a length of time. Please look at the new site as a work in progress. We intend to be making changes as we go along, so input from visitors would be welcome. I would like to take a moment to thank Alex Canning for all the work that he had done on this site in the last few months. He has taken time out of his very busy life to re-work this site with very little help from me. Alex is a great friend of the family and a very talented individual. If you like the work he has done on this site and you have a site you might like him to get involved in please contact him by clicking here. First a big thank you to all of you Jolly JG fans out there who sent their condolences to us. The sheer number of people who wrote to say we were in their thoughts, and how much our Father’s books meant to them was overwhelming. We were extremely touched. What we aim to do over the next few months is to bring you updates on the publication of John’s last book Moriarty. As fans will know this is the much-anticipated third volume of the saga, which he always said he would write. Indeed he had a great time writing it, and he was the happiest I had seen him in a long while in the months before his death. Many people have written to me asking where they can find copies of his work outside of EBay/Amazon etc. Well another aim of this site is a crusade to get John Gardner back into the bookstores where he rightfully belongs. So visit us once in a while and I will let you know how that is going. Once again thank you all for your kindness following the death of John, you are an incredible bunch of fans and we hope you will continue to light a torch for the work of John Edmund Gardner. Missed but never forgotten! Simon Richard John Gardner |

| No Human Enemy - Out Now | |
England, June 1944. Exactly one week after the D-Day landings came the vengeance weapons. It was the beginning of a period which, to the war-weary inhabitants of southern England, was psychologically much worse than the days of the Blitz. With Allied forces gaining a foothold after the Normandy landings, Hitler unleashes his most vicious weapon of war yet---the V-1 flying bomb. One of these new weapons lands on a Camberwell convent, killing three nuns. Suzie Mountford and her boss and secret lover Tommy Livermore are sent to investigate. When it’s discovered that one of the dead nuns is not what she seems, they find themselves in the middle of a complex, sinister plot. |
