When Holmes makes inroads with the House of Silk case, he is framed for murder and sent to prison. Meanwhile, Watson meets with a mystery criminal, later revealed as Professor Moriarty, who provides him with a key to free Holmes from prison, before the detective can be assassinated. Professor Moriarty's motives are uncertain, except that he wishes Holmes to rid the world of the House of Silk, whose activities apparently appall even him. When Watson arrives at the prison, he discovers Holmes has escaped of his own accord, disguised as an aide to the prison doctor, whom he had once helped as a client. Various leads draw them to a travelling funfair, where they are ambushed, before being saved by Lestrade.

We ascend the 17 steps up to the first floor of 221B Baker Street. All is as we might expect. The usual cast assemble. Mrs Hudson is there with a plate of scones. Wiggins and the Baker Street irregulars make a welcome appearance, as do rat-faced Inspector Lestrade and Mycroft ("He is still alive, by the way. When I last heard, he had been knighted and was the chancellor of a well-known university"). Moriarty ("'I am a mathematician, Dr Watson … I am also what you would doubtless term a criminal'"). Poor Mary, Watson's ailing wife. Outside, fog and hansom cabs. Inside, Holmes, with his Strad and his 7% solution.published on 2023-10-17T20:52:28Z Jaydaa - Live @ House of Silk - Summer Closing Party @ LDN East - Sat 30th September 2023 Holmes tells Carstairs that he will not be able to help him, but the next day, he receives word that Mr. Carstairs's house was robbed.

She has an American accent, and she explains that they are newly married, having met on a recent voyage from America to England. They also meet Eliza, Mr. Carstairs's sister; she warns them that Catherine is only after her brother's money. published on 2023-10-17T20:52:20Z Shenin Amara - Live @ House of Silk - Summer Closing Party @ LDN East - Sat 30th September 2023 published on 2023-10-17T20:52:31Z Crazy Cousinz - Live @ House of Silk - Summer Closing Party @ LDN East - Sat 30th September 2023

The party (Holmes, Watson, Lestrade) makes its way to the "House of Silk", a club operated by a pastor and his wife who also govern a boy's orphanage, and rent the boys to wealthy customers. The members are promptly rounded up by Scotland Yard. Despite their arrests, however, the case does not come to trial, due to a royal family member having been purportedly involved. It is eventually revealed that Mrs. Carstairs is the true person responsible for The Flat Cap case, being the second leader of the Irish gang.So, all of the elements are there: the data, the data, the data. Nothing of consequence overlooked. And yet can Horowitz, like Holmes, make from these drops of water the possibilities of an Atlantic or a Niagara? Can he astonish us? Can he thrill us? Are there "the rapid deductions, as swift as intuitions, and yet always founded on a logical basis" that we yearn for?

We can’t help but get astounded by the impressive observation and exhilarated deductive skills of the investigator. Not to mention, his talent in arriving at conclusions out of thin air proves the meticulous craft of the original creator. The House of Silk is another Holmes novel published in 2011, but not apparently written by Doyle, but by Anthony Horowitz instead.

That’s when it happens. Edmund Carstairs, an art gallery partner, visits them with a complaint that he is being followed. He believes it’s from an Irish gang, whom he had to fight indirectly with a year ago, related to the robbery of a few paintings in the US.
