Sherlock Holmes is bored - there are no intriguing murder cases to solve. Then a nearby flat is blown up and Holmes starts to think something may be afoot. His brother Mycroft visits and tries to get him to solve a suspected murder case involving an MI6 officer and find the top secret missile plans he had. Holmes is not that interested. The bomb case gets more intriguing, and deadly, when Holmes is contacted by a would-be victim of the bomber. Unless Holmes solves a certain case within 12 hours, the bomb attached to the person will be detonated. Time is of the essence.
Great, intriguing story. Tension-filled, with the tension and pacing tightly controlled to great effect. Great sense of mystery, but with a time limit, making it even more interesting.
Some good humorous moments too.
Best of all, we get to meet Holmes' arch-nemesis for the first time...
