Conan Doyle's legendary detective is brought back to life in his most electrifying adventure yet, with a brand new introduction by Mark Gatiss co-creator of the hit BBC series Sherlock.

After his deadly plunge over Reichenbach Falls, Sherlock Holmes seemed gone forever — but, as mysteriously as he left, he returns three years later. Now, reunited with Watson, a host of thrilling new adventures through London's underworld awaits, battling thieves, kidnappers and killers alike. But Holmes is about to meet his most despised villain yet: the dastardly Charles Augustus Milverton.
