Synopsis

After an attempt on his life in Paris, Sherlock Holmes returns to London and is swiftly drawn into a confidential peace conference, where the stakes extend far beyond the safety of its delegates. With Europe described as a powder keg in the years before the First World War, even a small error threatens consequences on a continental scale.

At the same time, a succession of urgent requests presses in: a missing manuscript from the British Museum, troubling allegations against Inspector Lestrade, and a newlywed who fears her husband intends to kill her. From Paris to the Rare Book Room, St Paul’s Cathedral and the Thames waterfront, Holmes and Watson pursue an adversary for whom murder is simply another move in a calculated game.
