MORIARTY (SHERLOCK HOLMES #2) by ANTHONY HOROWITZ
I know some of you would love to read a book about Sherlock Holmes.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYNOPSIS
Internationally
bestselling author Anthony Horowitz's nail-biting new novel plunges us
back into the dark and complex world of Detective Sherlock Holmes and
Professor James Moriarty--dubbed "the Napoleon of crime"--in the
aftermath of their fateful struggle at the Reichenbach Falls.
Days
after Holmes and Moriarty disappear into the waterfall's churning
depths, Frederick Chase, a senior investigator at New York's infamous
Pinkerton Detective Agency, arrives in Switzerland. Chase brings with
him a dire warning: Moriarty's death has left a convenient vacancy in
London's criminal underworld. There is no shortage of candidates to take
his place--including one particularly fiendish criminal mastermind.
Chase
is assisted by Inspector Athelney Jones, a Scotland Yard detective and
devoted student of Holmes's methods of deduction, whom Conan Doyle
introduced in The Sign of Four. The two men join forces and fight their
way through the sinuous streets of Victorian London--from the elegant
squares of Mayfair to the shadowy wharfs and alleyways of the Docks--in
pursuit of this sinister figure, a man much feared but seldom seen, who
is determined to stake his claim as Moriarty's successor.
Riveting
and deeply atmospheric, Moriarty is the first Sherlock Holmes novel
sanctioned by the author's estate since Horowitz's House of Silk. This
tale of murder and menace breathes life into Holmes's fascinating world,
again proving that once you have eliminated the impossible, whatever
remains, however im- probable, must be the truth.
