Über den Autor
Daniel Smith is a writer and book editor born in Wallington, Surrey (one of the settings in The Adventure of the Cardboard Box). He became a Holmes devotee when still a child, a passion that remained through an English degree and beyond. He now lives in East London with his fiancee and has more film versions of The Hound of the Baskervilles than he knows what to do with.
