> [@AuntiePam](#): > > …9. Stephen King… Yes! Surprised me when I first learned that King had written a Holmes pastiche. It’s “The Doctor’s Case,” which I found in _The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes_, edited by Martin Henry-Greenberg and Carol-Lynn Rossel Waugh (Carroll & Graf 1987). I thought it was a pretty good story. ---
