There have been many Holmes books since Doyle's death. I have read several. Someone is always taking a shot.

There was a wonderful bit of cheese twenty years ago, a made for TV movie where Watson's great grand-daughter inherits a storage locker that contains...Holmes, frozen in cryonic stasis in a machine of his own design! He masters the Internet in a day, to discover that Moriarity is "stored"
as a computer program, or some such nonsense. Fun, though!

I am about 2/3's through the Carr book now. It is written in the Doyle style (with a few old fashioned spellings brought up to date) and feels very much like an original.
