I don't know if this is of interest and I'm reluctant to say anymore in case you haven't read the book. I have uploaded a mp3 of the Last Sherlock Holmes Story section of the show. It's about 10 minutes.

Skydrive A Good Read The Last Sherlock Holmes Story BBCR4 20131022

Here's the show's full synopsis.

A Good Read
Brendan O'Neill and Gabriel Gbadamosi

Duration: 30 minutes
First broadcast: Tuesday 22 October 2013
BBC Radio 4

Harriett Gilbert talks to Brendan O'Neill and Gabriel Gbadamosi about their favourite books, from Graham Greene to a wild new twist on the Sherlock Holmes story to a Norwegian classic...

Brendan O'Neill, editor of the online magazine Spiked, chooses a late and rather different Graham Greene - Monsignor Quixote.

Writer Gabriel Gbadamosi recommends a little-known but compelling Norwegian classic: The Ice Palace by Tarjei Vesaas.

And presenter Harriett Gilbert's choice offers a new perspective on Sherlock Holmes. It's The Last Sherlock Holmes Story by Michael Dibdin, author of the Aurelio Zen detective series.
