Synopsis

This immersive, clever, and twisty Sherlock Holmes mystery adventure by the author of the acclaimed novel Turnglass pairs Holmes and Watson with two very unlikely allies—Moriarty and his trusted second, Moran—to solve a sinister plot that could threaten the very existence of the human race as we know it.

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson have been hired by theater actor George Reynolds to find out why the audience who comes to see him perform onstage every night are the same people—only wearing different disguises each time. Is something sinister going on and, if so, what?
          Meanwhile, Holmes’s archenemy, Professor James Moriarty, is having problems of his own. Implicated in a rival gang leader’s murder, Moriarty and his second, Moran, must go on the run from the police as they try to find out who’s behind the frame-up.
          But their investigation puts them in the way of Holmes and Watson and it’s not long before all four realize they’re being targeted by the same person. With million of lives on the line, Holmes and Moriarty must form an uneasy alliance in order to unmask the true villain.

For fans of Anthony Horowitz's The House of Silk and Moriarty, this is the first Sherlock Holmes book endorsed by the Conan Doyle Estate in over a decade.

CONFUSIONE E LACUNE Libro ancora più deludente, se paragonato a "The turnglass", che invece mi aveva fatto impazzire. Ho seguito la trama con interesse solo perché credevo sinceramente che sarebbe migliorata, le premesse (nonché la caratterizzazione dei personaggi) sembravano interessanti. Alla fine,......more

Tw: secondo me non va bene per gli agorafobici. Ho grande stima per chi pubblica apocrifi di Sherlock Holmes. Sono fanfiction che ce l'hanno fatta, che hanno uno status. Come tutte dovrebbero avere, per altro, e come ogni fanfiction che si rispetti sono fatte di wishfulfillment. Nel particolare caso d......more

I personaggi di Arthur Conan Doyle vengono ripresi e portati all'interno di una nuova avventura tra le strade di Londra e i sentieri di un paesino tranquillo in Svizzera.
