Skylar Holmes: The Last Hope is the second book in my sci-fi/English-classics mashup trilogy after the first, Pride and Prejudice and Superheroes, and before the third, Starship Wuthering Heights. We see the second appearance of the race known as the Equalisers.
Born January 6th, 1894, Skylar Holmes the daughter of the legendary private detective Sherlock Holmes is collected by the Equalisers and dumped two thousand years in the future. She is bonded to a shapeshifter called Piron who cannot leave her side for longer than a day without both of them suffering debilitating pain. Skylar has to solve a crime. She has been told she is the "Last Hope". But is not told what she is the last hope of. And to make matters worse, she is not told what the crime is that she has to solve.
Skylar Holmes: The Last Hope is expected to be a 153,000 word mash-up sci-fi/classics detective novel by T. J. P. Campbell divided into around 60 chapters. It has been edited and proof read, but this is a pre-published version with good grammar and punctuation.
All efforts were made to make this a well-written novel for those wishing to learn and experience the finest qualities of the English language.
The published version will have a slight improvement. Amazon at present does not allow the published versions to be read on other publishing systems. Minimal images are included to enhance ease and speed of reading on phones and laptops.
**This Wattpad novel version shows the opening handful of chapters which is less than 10% of the full novel as I am selling through KDP (Amazon/Kindle)**

The Devil's Chord
A mysterious death. A life in the balance. When do the ends justify the means? John Watson wants nothing more than to head home to 221B and have a hot cuppa, but Sherlock Holmes has other plans. The famous composer, Rebecca Frost, has died. Her elderly butler insists she was murdered. Sherlock takes on the case, only to face the additional complication of Vivian Walker - the unexpected heir to the Frost Estate. Someone wants her dead, and it's up to Sherlock and John to protect her, whether the stubborn woman wants their help or not. But more than one danger threatens her life. Solving this mystery and keeping Vivian safe may prove their greatest challenge yet. Book One of the Hooked on a Feeling series *** This novel is AU, as it was written prior to the release of Sherlock Series 3. As a result, there is no Mary, Sherlock's parents are very different, and Moriarty isn't back. Sherlock has returned following The Reichenbach Fall, and he and John have repaired their friendship. There will be no romantic relationship between the two, only brotherly love between the best of friends. There will be bickering though. Loads of it. There will also be moments of angst, hints of a developing romance (Sherlock/OC), and of course an intriguing mystery. If that's your cuppa tea, then put your feet up and relax. You're in for a treat! You can expect a new chapter posted every Friday. Happy Reading!Complete
The Detective's Bloom
In the heart of London, Rose Victoria, a young woman with a sharp intellect and a hidden vulnerability, crosses paths with the brilliant, yet emotionally distant, Sherlock Holmes. Though she's always relied on her own brilliance to navigate life's challenges, something about Sherlock's mysterious presence calls to her. Their connection begins as a collaboration on complex cases, but soon, the quiet moments and unspoken glances hint at something deeper-something neither of them is ready to confront. Rose's life is far from perfect. Beneath her sharp mind lies the burden of a troubled past, and a heart that she's been desperately trying to protect. But as she grows closer to Sherlock, her emotions are thrown into turmoil. She begins to realize that her feelings for him are far stronger than she ever intended, but revealing them could shatter everything she's worked so hard to keep hidden. While Sherlock's focus remains fixed on his cases, his aloof demeanor begins to crack as he grows increasingly aware of Rose's presence in his life. With her unparalleled intellect and her calming influence, she becomes more than just an ally-she becomes someone he finds himself protecting in ways he doesn't fully understand. In a world of complex deductions and life-or-death cases, *The Detective's Bloom* explores the delicate balance between intellect and emotion, between logic and love. As the danger around them intensifies, Sherlock realizes that saving those he loves-including Rose-might require more than just solving mysteries-it may demand sacrifices of the heart that he never saw coming. In a world of logic and deduction, can Sherlock Holmes, the master detective, protect the one person who has unexpectedly captured his heart, or will their blooming connection be torn apart by the very danger he's trying to stop?

Strangeness and Charm (a Sherlock Fanfiction)
"Although we stick together it seems that we are estranging one another" -Florence + the Machine (Strangeness & Charm) A bbc Sherlock fanfiction, about the daughters of Sherlock Holmes and John Watson, who solve crimes and mysteries in and around London. The story is going to be a project of three cases and a special case at the ending. The first case, The Evanescing Watchman, is finished and fully published already. All updates are at Wednesdays and Sundays, but there will be breaks in between cases. The title was inspired by Florence Welch's song, with the same title- this also features in the opening titles for the story, which is now available on YouTube and attached to the first chapter :) More music features in the story, however. In fact, the title of each chapter is a soundtrack or a song, which is atmospherically accurate, to the manifestations and content of the chapter. The rightful owner of this music is placed between brackets. Strangeness and Charm (S&C) was co-created by @ABisexualWeirdo, who owns the character of Rosie. She is writing a spin-off on our shared account, @GraceHRosieW. Be sure to check it out! ;) My thanks for this story go to @ABisexualWeirdo and @EvanlynTheAuthor, for helping me throughout this journey, and editing, and simply being incredible people ;3 -Rated mature for lowkey swearing and violence-Complete

I know. It's quite a mouthful. Cue the summary! *** Skylar is born with predetermined odds against her. She's been isolated since birth from her true nature and her peers in the name of an experiment. A change of plans cause the people in charge to order her relocation to Oakwood, a microscopic town swarming with mutants like her. They silently follow her journey as Riley is confronted to strange locals, a boy that hates her guts and nightmarish monsters lurking around her house. Throughout the series, she slowly but surely discovers truths about herself she could never fathom... and that there is a daunting trap waiting to snap. One life. One experiment. Endless lies. Some cussing and violence invovled. THIS IS THE FIRST BOOK OF A SERIES AND IT GETS PROGRESSIVELY DARKER 😈 Disclaimer : My story is inspired from Jennifer Armentrout's series Lux (basically, credits to her because this wouldn't exist otherwise). There are many differences but also several similarities. The plot isn't centered the same, either way. I just have fun writing and twisting up my favorite elements.Complete
