Sherlock Holmes is dead.

Days after Holmes and his arch-enemy Professor James Moriarty fall to their doom at the Reichenbach Falls, Pinkerton agent Frederick Chase arrives from New York. The death of Moriarty has created a poisonous vacuum that has been swiftly filled by a fiendish new criminal mastermind. Ably assisted by Inspector Athelney Jones, a devoted student of Holmess methods of investigation and deduction, Chase must hunt down this shadowy figure, a man much feared but seldom seen, a man determined to engulf London in a tide of murder and menace.

The game is afoot . . .

Award-winning TV screenwriter Anthony Horowitz takes up Conan Doyles mantle once more in this riveting and deeply atmospheric talesanctioned by the authors estatethat breathes life into Holmess world, again proving that once you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.
