In January 1888, Dr. John H. Watson returns to 221b Baker Street, grappling with personal loss and feeling adrift. With the support of Sherlock Holmes and Mrs. Hudson, he attempts to regain his footing. However, he soon finds himself targeted by a madman who irrationally blames him for his misfortunes. To help distract Watson from his grief, Holmes shares stories of past cases, including the recovery of a mysterious relic, The Eye of Heka, stolen from the British Museum. But their plan to examine the ancient idol spirals out of control, plunging them into a whirlwind of thefts, murders, and the looming threat of international conflict. Throughout this turmoil, the madman lurks in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to strike. From the Notebooks of Dr. John H. Watson, this tale by David Marcum, a prolific author of Sherlockian pastiches, invites readers back to Baker Street for more authentic adventures. Join us as we delve into the life and challenges of Sherlock Holmes, the remarkable figure whom Dr. Watson describes as "the best and wisest . . . whom I have ever known." The game is afoot!
