(In December 1893, Sherlock Holmes-adoring Londoners eager...)
In December 1893, Sherlock Holmes-adoring Londoners eagerly opened their Strand magazines, anticipating the detective's next adventure, only to find the unthinkable: his creator, Arthur Conan Doyle, had killed their hero off. London spiraled into mourning-crowds sported black armbands in grief-and railed against Conan Doyle as his assassin. Then in 1901, just as abruptly as Conan Doyle had "murdered" Holmes in "The Final Problem," he resurrected him. Though the writer kept detailed diaries of his days and work, Conan Doyle never explained this sudden change of heart. After his death, one of his journals from the interim period was discovered to be missing, and in the decades since, has never been found. Or has it? When literary researcher Harold White is inducted into the preeminent Sherlock Holmes enthusiast society, The Baker Street Irregulars, he never imagines he's about to be thrust onto the hunt for the holy grail of Holmes-ophiles: the missing diary. But when the world's leading Doylean scholar is found murdered in his hotel room, it is Harold-using wisdom and methods gleaned from countless detective stories-who takes up the search, both for the diary and for the killer.

(New York, 1888. Gas lamps still flicker in the city stree...)
New York, 1888. Gas lamps still flicker in the city streets, but the miracle of electric light is in its infancy. The person who controls the means to turn night into day will make history - and a vast fortune. A young untested lawyer named Paul Cravath, fresh out of Columbia Law School, takes a case that seems impossible to win. Paul’s client, George Westinghouse, has been sued by Thomas Edison over a billion-dollar question: Who invented the light bulb and holds the right to power the country? The case affords Paul entry to the heady world of high society - the glittering parties in Gramercy Park mansions, and the more insidious dealings done behind closed doors. The task facing him is beyond daunting. Edison is a wily, dangerous opponent with vast resources at his disposal - private spies, newspapers in his pocket, and the backing of J. P. Morgan himself. Yet this unknown lawyer shares with his famous adversary a compulsion to win at all costs. How will he do it?

(It’s the most sensational case of the decade. Fifteen-yea...)
It’s the most sensational case of the decade. Fifteen-year-old Jessica Silver, the heiress to a billion-dollar real estate fortune, vanishes on her way home from school, and her teacher, Bobby Nock, a twenty-five-year-old African American man, is the prime suspect. The subsequent trial taps straight into America’s most pressing preoccupations: race, class, sex, law enforcement, and the lurid sins of the rich and famous. It’s an open-and-shut case for the prosecution, and a quick conviction seems all but guaranteed - until Maya Seale, a young woman on the jury, convinced of Nock’s innocence, persuades the rest of the jurors to return the verdict of not guilty, a controversial decision that will change all their lives forever. Flash forward ten years. A true-crime docuseries reassembles the jury, with particular focus on Maya, now a defense attorney herself. When one of the jurors is found dead in Maya’s hotel room, all evidence points to her as the killer. Now, she must prove her own innocence - by getting to the bottom of a case that is far from closed.

Graham Moore was born on October 18, 1981, in Chicago, Illinois, United States. He is the son of Gary Moore and Susan Sher. Later on, his parents divorced. His stepfather is Neil Cohen.
Graham Moore graduated from the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools in 1999. When he was sixteen, he attempted suicide. After school, he studied at Columbia University where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree in religious history in 2003.
Graham Moore is known as an author as well as a screenwriter. Before beginning his career, he worked as a sound engineer. His writing career began with the collaboration with childhood friend Ben Epstein. In 2010 they wrote the episode "Meat is Murder" of the TV series 10 Things I Hate About You. That same year Moore's first book The Sherlockian was published. Hurtling from present-day New York to Victorian London, The Sherlockian weaves the history of Sherlock Holmes and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle into an inspired and entertaining double mystery that proves to be anything but "elementary." His most popular work was his screenplay adaption of the 2014 film The Imitation Game based on the biography Alan Turing: The Enigma by Andrew Hodges. His forthcoming work is writing, directing, and producing the sci-fi thriller Naked Is the Best Disguise for Studio 8.
Moore's second book The Last Days of Night was published in 2016. This novel, based on actual events, is about the nature of genius, the cost of ambition, and the battle to electrify America. He adapted the screenplay for The Last Days of Night to be directed by Oscar-nominated director of The Imitation Game Morten Tyldum. Moore's recent book is The Holdout (2020). This novel takes a searing look at the United States justice system, media scrutiny, and racism.

Quotations:
"I’m not gay, but I don’t think you have to be gay to have a gay hero."
"I had been this huge computer nerd my entire life."
"The only way for something human to feel human is to convince others that it is."
"I think I always felt like an outsider, like a weirdo."
"I think we all feel like weirdos for different reasons."
"Depression is something I've dealt with every day of my life."
"Depression is internal. The upswings and downswings have pretty much nothing to do with what's going on in the external world. It's not like something sad happens to you and then you feel sad. Good things happen, but you feel sad anyway."
"In my experience, depression was not something that has been cured so much as managed, like a lot of illnesses."
"I'm always much more interested in flawed heroes than in perfect ones."
"I believe in traditions; I believe in the idea of things being passed between generations and the slow transmission of cultural values through tradition."
Graham Moore's favorite books about technology are The Baroque Cycle by Neal Stephenson, Einstein's Dreams by Alan Lightman, The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson, Pattern Recognition by William Gibson, The Cuckoo's Egg by Cliff Stoll, and Superintelligence by Nick Bostrom.
