Currently available as a graphic novel compilation
HONOUR AMONG PUNKS
from ibooks and distributed by Simon and Shuster

Baker StreetBaker Street, the center of England’s punk movement in a London few would ever know, a life even less would ever see. Where being different is the rule, "ratting" the gambling vice of a city’s underground, and death is often around the next corner. Here is where mystery, intrigue, and suspense are more than a game to the residents of post Victorian London, it’s a way of life.

Baker Street, the name conjures up many images, mainly of Victorian London and the home of Sherlock Holmes. You won’t find Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s sleuths here, just some similarities yet a little bit more. A Sherlockian adventure set in an alternative but present day London. An England where World War II never happened and the Victorian era is resurrected into present day values. All of which only is the backdrop of the mysteries and a setting to clash with London’s punk subculture.

Baker Street, a violent intrusion into a world that doesn’t exist but possibly could have. It is a story of rebellion yet also one of belonging. It dives deep into a world on the fringe and exposes it’s underbelly and treats the normal world as the outside . It is Baker Street and no, you won’t find Holmes or Watson here but you will find Harlequin, Sam, Susan, Toby, Toller, the Ripper, and far too many other fascinating characters to list.

Baker Street is one of Caliber’s most acclaimed series ever. Released simultaneously with the inaugural launch of Caliber Press with such notable titles as The Crow and Deadworld, Baker Street is the title that was the best selling and most closely identified with Caliber.

Nominated for "Best New Series" in the Harvey Awards,
the industry standard for excellence.

Key Elements: A story about outsides in a world where they don’t belong. Murder, mystery, and a character worthy of being compared to Sherlock Holmes. Strong female characters.

Association; it would hard to classify anything as being similar to Baker Street. It is truly unique.

Format: Even with major changes occurring with the characters, Baker Street could be ongoing as the world it has created has many avenues to explore. Currently, Simon and Shuster are distributing the complete BAKER STREET:HONOUR AMONG PUNKS trade paperback available at Amazon, Borders, Barnes & Noble, etc.

Additional: Baker Street has a unique look and feel to it. Although set in an alternative world, it is clearly not science fiction. Many areas could be explored about how the world is without the destruction of World War II.
