Erasing Sherlock is an original novel by Kelly Hale set in the Faction Paradox universe. It is the last Faction Paradox novel to be published by Mad Norwegian Press, though not the last in the series. Although taking place in a shared universe, it is a stand-alone work that does not require any prior knowledge of Faction Paradox. A passing familiarity with Sherlock Holmes may well be helpful, however.

The novel is based on a previous work, Erasing Sherlock Holmes, which won a $10,000 award in the Great North American Fiction Contest and was published as an e-book by PublishingOnline.com[1].

[edit] Plot

"Seeking maid-of-all-work. Master of Arts required. Opportunities for research in the field. Must be able to relocate in time." A doctoral candidate, in the guise of a housemaid working at 221B Baker Street, believes she is there to observe the 25-year-old Sherlock Holmes, and document his methods at the beginning of his career. She soon learns she is operating under a serious misapprehension.
