A young woman named Alice Faulkner is in possession of documents that could cause a devastating royal scandal. Unfortunately, she has fallen into the hands of a pair of unscrupulous people who wish to use her possessions for their own ill benefit. So it is up to England's most famous consulting detective along with the help of his trusted friend, Doctor Watson, to rescue this unfortunate young woman and avert the impending scandal.
This was a fun read. I really enjoyed the way this graphic novel was drawn. It reminded me of the old Masterpiece Mysteries cartoons. Additionally Holmes is drawn like Jeremy Brett, who is my favorite actor to portrait Sherlock Holmes. Not only that the black and white colour scheme add atmosphere to the story.
Finally the pacing of the story is great. It builds slowly and has a lot of fun with Holmes mythology. If you are a fan of Sherlock Holmes, this is a quick and enjoyable read.
