With his international bestseller The Seven-Per-Cent Solution,
Nicholas Meyer brought to light a previously unpublished case of
Sherlock Holmes, as recorded by his amanuensis, Dr. John H. Watson.
Now Meyer returns with a shocking discovery - an unknown case drawn
from a recently discovered Watson journal. January 1905: Holmes and
Watson are summoned by Holmes' brother Mycroft to undertake a
clandestine investigation. An agent of the British Secret Service
has been found floating in the Thames, carrying a manuscript
smuggled into England at the cost of her life. The pages purport to
be the minutes of a meeting of a secret group intent on nothing
less than taking over the world. Based on real events, the
adventure takes the famed duo - in the company of a bewitching
woman - aboard the Orient Express from Paris into the heart of
Tsarist Russia, where Holmes and Watson attempt to trace the
origins of this explosive document. On their heels are desperate
men of unknown allegiance, determined to prevent them from
achieving their goal. And what they uncover is a conspiracy so vast
as to challenge Sherlock Holmes as never before.
