The Adventure of the Artful Dodger

The Continuing Chronicles of Sherlock Holmes

By: C. Thorne

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Come along as two legends of the Victorian era meet, in The Adventure of the Artful Dodger! As newlywed-to-be Dr. John Watson counts down the remaining fortnight until his wedding to Miss Mary Morstan, Baker Street plays host to a man Holmes admiringly dubs “criminal royalty,” the one-time Artful Dodger, himself. Now well-beyond his long-ago past as a master pickpocket, and known simply as Jack Dawkins, the Dodger comes bearing a warning that a new danger has arisen to the youth of the East End, as the most insidious leader of a gang of child thieves since Fagin himself has taken to sending out an army of young pickpockets onto the foggy streets of the city. What is the truth behind these rumours, and how can Sherlock Holmes hope to infiltrate this force of evil before it corrupts ever-growing numbers of the innocent? Find out in the forty-first title in The Continuing Chronicles of Sherlock Holmes!
