Likewise, THE GAME'S AFOOT
1890 saw London. Baker St. 221B. Edmund Carstairs, a fine art dealer, goes to see Dr. John Watson and Sherlock Holmes and begs for their assistance. A weird guy with a flat cap is menacing him; it seems that the wanted felon has followed him from America. His family is threatened and his house is plundered in the days that follow. After then, the first murder occurs.
Unwillingly, Holmes and Watson see themselves dragged further and farther into a global conspiracy with ties to the opium dens, the gaslit alleys of London, the thriving Boston criminal underground, and much, much more. As they go more, they start to hear murmurs about the House of Silk, a shadowy organization that serves as a conduit between the highest echelons of government and the most heinous acts of crime. Sherlock Holmes starts to worry that he has discovered a plot that might upend civilization itself.
The renowned #1 New York Times bestselling novelist Anthony Horowitz was selected by the Arthur Conan Doyle Estate to create The House of Silk because to his intense love for all things Holmesian and his demonstrated ability to captivate readers with a tale. The House of Silk, destined to become an instant classic, resurrects Sherlock Holmes with all the subtlety, pacing, and nearly superhuman deductive and analytical abilities that made him the greatest detective in history—in a case that portrays events that are too horrific and shocking to be published in a book until now.
