Synopsis

Sherlock Holmes reluctantly agrees to help Inspector Lestrade when a jewel-encrusted dagger goes missing and an insistent nobleman demands results. What appears to be a straightforward theft quickly widens into a contest with a ruthless, brilliant criminal whom Watson names “The Merchant of Menace”.

As the stakes rise, Holmes is forced to respond to a foe whose next move is impossible to predict, and whose attention is drawn to priceless, one-of-a-kind objects. The pursuit ranges from the British Museum to the Louvre and Blenheim Palace, set against early Edwardian England and featuring figures including the Duke and Duchess of Marlborough and a young Winston Churchill. Suitable for readers who enjoy Conan Doyle-inspired Sherlock Holmes adventures.
