The Falling Curtain

November, 1909. Sherlock Holmes has successfully prevented further robberies of England's greatest institutions and captured one of his most dangerous enemies, but something is still rotten in the streets of London. A series of attacks threaten not only his life, but the lives of those few individuals that he calls ‘friend.' With Dr. Watson injured, his defenses crumbling, and Scotland Yard deaf to his appeals for succor, Holmes must call upon some irregular help and use every means at his disposal to determine what adversary is stalking him from the mists of the past. From the cells of Wandsworth to the heights of Tower Bridge, Holmes is once more on the hunt. But is he willing to make the sacrifice required to put a final end to this monstrous menace?*** This edition contains both the basic story, as well as a fully annotated version containing a cornucopia of scholarly insights that compare this newly unearthed tale by Dr. John H. Watson to the classic adventures from the Canon of Sherlock Holmes.
