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 Sociopath: A BBC Sherlock Fanfic
{SUMMARY: EDITED} Follow the exciting life of the consulting detective, Sherlock Holmes as him and his flatmate, John Watson, try to catch James Moriarty, a consulting criminal who is only known to them as the "Invisible Man". However, it isn't long until both find out his true name, and the detective himself finds out his true identity. Things get turned for the worse when Sherlock comes up with what he believes a clever plan, a plan that he keeps secret, in order to beat the consulting criminal at his own game. But it could be that Moriarty has messed with the sociopath's mind. . . Which means he may be going mad. But despite all of this, and keeping this secret away from John, Mr Holmes is a restless man, and he will not stop at nothing until he has caught---and stopped--- the enemy(Dr.Watson, however, is less determined). With an IQ above average and being a highly-functioning sociopath at best, and a detective partner who happens to be a doctor at his side, Sherlock is on a wild hunt in which the scent gets nearer. . . . But the trail is getting fainter every time he is one step closer. The game is on. . . {FANFIC WRITER'S NOTE: The reason why I edited the summary was because I realized I turned it into something totally different than how I planned it. Fortunately, it has turned out better, haha. And so, in this Sherlock fanfic, rather than focusing on the detective solving cases, it's focused on his confrontation with James Moriarty and how he tries to defeat him. Some things are like in the TV Show, but I'm going to make things different or add stuff. I hope you've enjoyed it so far!}Complete![Lost Girl 🔍 (Sherlock x Reader) [EDITING]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/91190344-256-k61002.jpg)

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?

All is Fair in Love and War
A Sherlock fanfiction. Moriarty is back, and everyone knows it. A tragedy strikes the Watson household. Dozens of little crimes pop up all over London. A Minister of Parliament vanishes. What does it all mean? And meanwhile, England's favorite flatmates are forced to re-evaluate the extent of their live-in relationship. This is my first Sherlock fanfic, so please do give me as much constructive criticism as humanely possible. Likewise, it's slash (imagine that). If John and Sherlock being in a relationship is a problem for you, you may not want to read this. On that note, I should likewise add that I intend this to be the darkest story I have written to date. Expect character death, torture, violence, sexual content, and etcetera. Enjoy.Complete
