The world of Holmes is a world of contradictions. Mysteries no author has solved... until now.
What happened on that fateful day at Reichenbach Falls when Detective Sherlock Holmes met his archnemesis, Professor James Moriarty? Why did Holmes go into hiding, abandoning his stalwart companion, Doctor John Watson, who assumed him dead? And what of Moriarty? Was he so easily consigned to a grave, the man who Holmes once called the Napoleon of Crime?
Lifelong Sherlockian scholar Thomas Mengert has drawn aside the curtain of history, unraveling and reweaving to reveal a deeper Sherlock Holmes than even the original works by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. A decade in the making, The Confessions of Sherlock Holmes is a five-volume pilgrimage that frames the problem of evil as a philosophical investigation in search of a theological answer.
The journey begins in The Wager at Reichenbach Falls as Holmes and Watson meet on Dartmoor. Embarking on a round-the-world odyssey, they also reunite on a simultaneous adventure to save the British Empire from the machinations of the evil Baron Maupertuis, and Watson learns of a strange journal that finally reveals where Holmes was during The Great Hiatus-the four years when Watson and all of England thought that Sherlock Holmes was dead.
As the great detective has so often said, The game is afoot!
