The city of London is rife with crimes of all sizes, and only one man can solve what the police can’t–the consulting detective, Sherlock Holmes! With his roommate Dr. Watson and the Baker Street Irregulars to assist, he has been steadily cleaning up the streets where Scotland Yard has failed. But, Holmes grows frustrated. He feels there is some invisible strand, some dark connection, some thing or someone who is behind the scenes connecting it all–and trapping them all in a web of deceit. That someone will prove to be Holmes’ match, for with every wretched villain Holmes takes down, it seems this someone has another to take their place. Holmes and company must cross through the valley of fear to seek an end to this web. But will Holmes solve it at last, or be victim to this final problem?
