This is HUGE guys. HUGE! If you’re in the USA and publish something to do with Sherlock Holmes, the Conan Doyle Estate (which no longer has any familial ties to the family in its USA chapter) can sue you. This is ridiculous. Not to mention Jon Lullenberg, who is in charge of this whole money making business, is in cahoots with Philip Shreffler. Yeah. THAT guy. Bad news bears and bitter ones too. Les Klinger is the King among Sherlockians, is the advisor on the Guy Ritchie Sherlock Holmes films, and is an amazing dude (our interview with him is [HERE]). We fully support this course of action.

So read up and visit free-sherlock.com to learn more, because Holmes belongs to us ALL.
