When HolmesÕ father is arrested for the murder of a servant, Sherlock is called in by his brother Mycroft to prove their father's innocence and clear the family name.

Will they be able to put aside age-old hostilities and find the true culprit before the accused has his date with the gallows? After decades of forced absence, Holmes returns to his childhood home, in the process unlocking long-repressed feelings which force him to confront his troubled past and threaten to expose his darkest secrets.

This 10th Anniversary Collection also contains six short stories in which Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson pit their wits against their deadliest foes, and Watson undertakes a sea journey which takes an extraordinary turn that could solve the most fabled of mysteries. Two of these tales - 'The Crowhurst Demon' and 'The Adventure of the Sullen Detective' - are exclusive to this edition.
