About Sherlock Holmes
Solve this, Sherlock. It may be a game to you; it isn’t to me.’
London, 1890, a city rapidly expanding, devouring all in its path. Fresh off the success of his first big case, Sherlock Holmes misuses his time, until an unknown woman and a mysterious jewel arrive at 221b Baker Street.
