Two dead bodies. One unforgettable hero. The beginning of a legend. Followers of the young James Bond and junior spy Alex Rider will enjoy the adventures of school boy Sherlock Holmes who already shows many of the trademark skills that later make him a world renowned detective. Sent to live with chilly relatives in Holmes Manor for the school holiday, young Sherlock soon sets out to discover the truth behind two dead bodies.
Following the trail leads him into the heart of London’s Dockland underworld where his exceptional observation skills help to defuse a deadly plot in an exciting and atmospheric adventure.
The year is 1868, and Sherlock Holmes is fourteen. His life is that of a perfectly ordinary army officer's son: boarding school, good manners, a classical education - the backbone of the British Empire. But all that is about to change. With his father suddenly posted to India, and his mother mysteriously 'unwell', Sherlock is sent to stay with his eccentric uncle and aunt in their vast house in Hampshire.
