Synopsis

Taking its cue from the tradition of “The Great Game”, this book revisits the unresolved points and apparent inconsistencies in “A Scandal in Bohemia”. It examines the clues and contradictions in the original story, asking why Holmes appears to make basic errors, whether his cocaine use is credible, and what may lie behind the King of Bohemia’s urgency and the photograph’s danger.

It also reconsiders Irene Adler’s motives, including the question of whether she was truly a blackmailer, before building towards a “shocking conclusion” about what really happened. Suitable for readers interested in close-reading and reinterpretations of Sherlock Holmes.
