Wright, III) In 2015, The MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories burst upon the scene, featuring traditional Canonical adventures set within the correct time period, and written by many of today's leading Sherlockian authors from around the world. Those first three volumes were overwhelmingly received, and soon there were calls for additional collections. Since then, their popularity has only continued to grow, and the series is currently up to 36 massive volumes (and more in preparation!) with over 750 new Holmes adventures from over 200 contributors worldwide. Since the beginning, all royalties from these volumes have gone to the Undershaw school for special needs children, (formerly known as "Stepping Stones"), and as of mid-2022, the books have raised over $100,000 for the school, with no end in sight. From the very beginning, members of The Baker Street Irregulars stepped up to contribute, providing stories, poems, and forewords. Now, in this collection, we present something from nearly all of those previous BSI contributors and, as always, the royalties go to support the Undershaw school. These stories, poems, and forewords, along with the those in the original 36 volumes of The MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories, represent some of the finest new Holmesian storytelling to be found, and honor the man described by Watson as "the best and wisest . . . whom I have ever known." Stories, Forewords, and Poems in this volume have previously appeared in Parts I - XXXVI of The MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories. All royalties from this collection are being donated for the benefit of the preservation of Undershaw, a school for special needs students located at one of the former homes of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

Outlaw bikers and 1%er motorcycle clubs have always carefully guarded their privacy, however in recent years more and more books have come to be written by and about outlaw bikers, the lifestyle, and the realities of life inside the patched motorcycle club world. This anthology brings together some of the best authors in the world, who have recently written about motorcycle clubs, outlaw bikers and the biker culture. It features excerpts from internationally well-known authors such as Peter Edwards, Tony Thompson, Edward Winterhalder and Iain Parke, but also contains literary work from those who are relatively unknown and those who have only achieved recognition on a local scale. Covering both factual accounts of life inside clubs such as the Hells Angels, Satan’s Choice, Bandidos, Rock Machine, and the Outlaws, as well as leading examples of biker based fiction that explore the images of bikers and crucial themes such as loyalty, respect and honor, this compilation is intended to introduce the reader to the secretive world of motorcycle clubs and outlaw bikers.

Artie Cohen is a good-looking New York City cop with a taste for women and jazz and no intention of looking back to the past he left behind twenty-five years earlier in Moscow. In Red Hot Blues, he is faced with a case that leaves him no choice but to confront that past. When a former KGB general is shot dead on live TV, Artie is compelled to take the case; the general was a friend of his father's. Artie doesn't have to go far until he is led into the heart of the Brighton Beach mafia, where the most lethal weapon on the street is rumored to be an elusive substance known as Red Mercury - an atomic weapon that has the terrifying advantage of being pocket-sized. Artie stumbles upon a radioactive trail of atomic smuggling that leads all the way back to Moscow. For Artie to solve this case, he must reclaim his past and return to the home he left behind. It is in Moscow that he finds love, tragedy, and the truth.
