I just received the Russian edition of the Sherlock Holmes mysteries book in the mail. There are some interesting drawings in this edition. If I owned a working scanner, I’d slap a few of the drawings up here because they remind me so much of the original Holmes drawings. They’re very well done. Here’s the cover:

REVIEWS & ACCOLADES
(5 stars – Nightfall)
“I was very quickly pulled into this story. The characters were amazing. Alexandra being a descendant/connected to the Voodoo Priestess Marie Leveau was fascinating to me. All the legends surrounding Marie have always held my interest and I loved the spin Lois has taken in this book. Vadim is the sexy vampire that had me smitten from the beginning. His restraint was phenomenal as was the chemistry between these characters. I am looking forward to reading more of Lois’s work in the future and I highly recommend Nightfall to fans of PNR and New Adult alike.”
–At Random New Adult Book Blog
