Suing is unlikely to be useful, because the person behind this would likely be difficult to find, and probably hasn't make enough money to make it worthwhile. What is probably best is for HarryT to send Kobo a cease and desist notice pointing out it's infringing on his copyright. Others from the UK should do the same. If Kobo/etc. gets enough notices, they may yank the entire seller account.

I do like pdurrant's idea, let's sic the Conan Doyle estate on them.
