From the foggy back streets of London to the heat and dust of Agra, this second novel of the sleuthing duo focuses on stolen Indian treasure, presents the darker side of Sherlock Holmes, and introduces the future Mrs Watson.

In 1887, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are called to investigate a series of thefts from the Indian royal family. The thefts are believed to be the work of a notorious thief known as the "Napoleon of Crime," who is known for his daring robberies and his ability to evade capture.

As Holmes and Watson begin their investigation, they discover that the thefts are not just about stealing precious jewels and gold, but also about a much more sinister plot. The thief is using the stolen treasure to fund a secret society that is working to overthrow the Indian government and install a new ruler who will be loyal to him.

As the duo delves deeper into the case, they encounter a range of challenges and obstacles, including a mysterious woman named Mary Morstan, who is connected to the thief and may be able to help them uncover his identity. However, they also face opposition from the British government, who are reluctant to get involved in a case that could potentially escalate into a diplomatic crisis.

Despite these challenges, Holmes and Watson are determined to solve the case and bring the thief to justice. They use their unique skills and abilities to piece together the clues and uncover the truth behind the thefts. In the end, they are able to apprehend the thief and recover the stolen treasure, saving the Indian royal family and restoring peace to the country.
