Description

A shadow haunts Holmes across Europe—one as brilliant, cold, and calculating as he is. Their final encounter will change everything 🕵️‍♂️⛰️

“If I were assured of your eventual destruction I would, in the interests of the public, cheerfully accept my own.” — Sherlock Holmes

The Final Problem

It begins with a whisper in Baker Street: the name Moriarty. A professor. A genius. A spider at the center of a criminal web so vast and subtle, even Holmes has only glimpsed its edges. When Holmes interrupts one of Moriarty’s schemes, he becomes a marked man. Attacks follow—an assassin in his rooms, a near-miss in Regent Street, a sabotaged journey. With Watson by his side, Holmes flees England in a desperate race across the Continent.

But Moriarty is never far behind.

Through France and into Switzerland, past train stations and alpine villages, Holmes and Watson confront the terrifying scope of their enemy’s reach. Along the way, they encounter Colonel Moran—the Professor’s deadly second-in-command—glimpses of secret allies, and the tightening grip of inevitability. Each step forward leads to one final confrontation on the ledge of the Reichenbach Falls.

This story is not just a case. It is the reckoning of Sherlock Holmes’s life’s work, a battle between good and evil fought not in courtrooms or drawing rooms, but on a precipice where justice and sacrifice meet.

Written and created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
