Sherlock Holmes at the height of his powers is surrounded by all the elements that fans of his exploits have come to expect: danger, intrigue, wit, humor, and surprise. With his trusted companion Doctor Watson at his side, Holmes matches wits with his arch-nemesis, the evil Professor Moriarty, and faces his greatest challenge: a chilling mystery involving a kidnapped diva, scandalous letters, and London's seamy underworld.
