Murder. Intrigue. And a long-buried secret that will change everything. . .

London, 1895. A beautiful American actress visits 221B Baker Street, desperate for Sherlock Holmes to protect her from a mysterious, menacing man who has recently appeared in her life.

 

Holmes feels compelled to help the young woman, but he's been asked to solve an urgent case with international implications. A close associate of John. D. Rockefeller has been murdered, and Holmes suspects the violent act is an attempt to derail the upcoming British-American summit. Clues to the murder point directly to Professor Moriarty, proving that while Holmes's old archenemy may be dead, his criminal enterprise is alive and well. To prevent an international disaster, Holmes must figure out who is pulling the strings now, and why. As he races to find the true culprit, another woman walks into his life--someone from his past, who presents him with a mystery that will force him to look deep within for answers.

Can Holmes protect the young actress, solve the riddle from his own past, and prevent chaos on both sides of the Atlantic?
