A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

When American journalist Benjamin Barrett is sent to Constantinople to report on the sea trials of a new submarine, the assignment soon becomes more eventful than he had predicted: the submarine explodes in front of his eyes; he aids a certain Professor when the latter is attacked by a gang of toughs; and he is arrested for the murder of a British spy. However, the Professor comes to his aid, and arranges for his official death and transport to London. Moriarty makes him a proposition: to repay his debt, he will work for him for two years, and aid him in the business he has been engaged on by the Russian government. There is a mysterious masked agent Trepoff seeking to sow anarchy and destruction, and Moriarty must track him down and prevent a catastrophic attack at the highest echelons of British society, if only Sherlock Holmes will stop meddling in his affairs...

Revue de presse

"Clever, imaginative additions to the... Sherlock Holmes oeuvre." --Choice Magazine

"I liked this incarnation of Moriarty. He was genuinely funny, a man of great intelligence and depth, and yet still a criminal mastermind but Kurland has written him in such a way that you can t help but root for him and hope Sherlock Holmes fails in his mission to bring him down. A must read." --The Cult Den

"In many ways you ll reach the final page liking Professor Moriarty a lot more than Sherlock Holmes himself." --Pissed Off Geek

"A lot of action and compelling plots." ----Baker Street Babes
