Tales of the Great Detectives was the third The City of the Saved anthology. It focused on the various versions of Sherlock Holmes that lived in the City.

Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]

The City of the Saved houses every human being who ever lived… but some of its immortal Citizens need more.
