The Book of Extraordinary Amateur Sleuth and Private Eye Stories was a mystery genre anthology released in 2019, edited by Maxim Jakubowski and published by Mango.
While sixteen of the seventeen short stories didn't make use of any pre-existing DWU characters or elements, the sixth short story, written by Paul Magrs, featured Dodie Golightly, who originated from Magrs' earlier short story The Ninnies on Putney Common, published in Iris: Fifteen.
