The untold story of Sherlock Holmes’ greatest rival, Moriarty!
Before he was Sherlock’s rival, Moriarty fought against the unfair
class caste system in London by making sure corrupt nobility got their
comeuppance. But even the most well-intentioned plans can spin out of
control—will Moriarty’s dream of a more just and equal world turn him
into a hero…or a monster?
Three years after the fateful night when William and Sherlock
disappeared under the waves of the Thames, MI6 takes on a covert
mission to stop a leak of sensitive information that could disrupt the
balance of power between Great Britain and Russia. One stray bullet
winds up revealing the existence of someone unexpected hiding behind
the scenes, however. As rumblings of a great world war begin, it may
finally be time to repent for the crimes of the past…
The untold story of Sherlock Holmes' greatest rival, Moriarty!
Before he was Sherlock's rival, Moriarty fought against the unfair
class caste system in London by making sure corrupt nobility got
their comeuppance. But even the most well-intentioned plans can
spin out of control-will Moriarty's dream of a more just and equal
world turn him into a hero...or a monster? The true mastermind
behind the Jack the Ripper murders is none other than Britain's
media king, Charles Augustus Milverton. After the case comes to a
close, Milverton digs into William Moriarty's past, and it doesn't
take long for him to discover a certain court case where a boy from
the slums took a noble to court. Once he's dragged all the
skeletons out of the closet, will Milverton have uncovered the
truth of that fateful night when the Moriarty manor burned down?

lovely Mary Morstan. She has a very odd request for Sherlock,
however—one that makes him question her true intentions. Or
perhaps he’s just jealous that Watson is being taken from him!
