Description
Sherlock Holmes is fourteen in 1868. He's staying with his uncle and aunt at their house in Hampshire during the summer break from school. When two local people die under mysterious circumstances, Holmes starts to investigate what really killed them. With the help of his new tutor, an American named Amyus Crowe, he uncovers a sinister plot by a brilliant villain. As Holmes delves deeper into the case, he begins his true education in detection. He discovers that nothing is as it seems and that the key to solving the mystery lies in understanding human nature. With Crowe's guidance, Holmes learns to think critically and make connections between seemingly unrelated facts. This gripping story marks the beginning of Sherlock Holmes' journey as a detective. It sets him on a path of discovery and exploration that will take him to the limits of his abilities and beyond.
