Eleven new investigations. Eleven moral reckonings.
A cartographer dies at his desk, pen in hand, drawing a map of no recognisable place. A celebrated tenor contrives to die on stage at the Royal Opera House. Mysterious photographs appear overnight in a locked darkroom. Chalk marks on Whitechapel walls conceal a message no one was meant to read. A mathematician vanishes from his rooms at Cambridge, leaving his shoes, his coat, and an unfinished proof.
From the gaslit streets of London to the flat silence of the Fens, from a cathedral tower at midnight to the tunnels beneath Kennington, Dr. Watson chronicles cases that test not merely Holmes's intellect but his conscience. The puzzles are solved. The deeper questions are not.
These are stories about what a brilliant man chooses to do with what he knows — and what it costs him.
The Conscience of Sherlock Holmes is the first volume in The Sherlock Holmes Casebooks — a series of original short story collections in the tradition of Arthur Conan Doyle, set in late Victorian London.
Also in the series: The Darker Reaches of Sherlock Holmes and The Blind Spots of Sherlock Holmes.
