The game is afoot for Frankie as she meets with Gareth Rubin, author of Holmes and Moriarty, to find out how he came to write the latest Sherlock Holmes book, the challenges of bringing a new perspective to his story, why he's so fascinated by the Victorian era and the best low-effort crime.

You can follow Gareth on Twitter at @GarethRubin or visit his website at www.garethrubin.com.
