Summary:
It is 1890. A year after Holmes's death, Watson--now in a retirement home--narrates a tale of Sherlockian detection that could tear apart the very fabric of society. The story opens with a train robbery in Boston, and moves to the innocuous setting of Wimbledon.

London, 1890. A fine arts dealer named Edmund Carstairs begs for Holmes and Watson to help him. A wanted criminal seems to have followed him all the way from America. Carstair's home is robbed and his family threatened. Then the first murder takes place. -- adapted from back cover
