When a widow arrives at 221B Baker Street clutching a centuries-old map and a tale of her husband's mysterious death, Sherlock Holmes dismisses it as a "pedestrian treasure hunt." But the case of Edwin Fentiman—an antiquarian bookseller who fell to his death while researching the infamous highwayman Dick Turpin—proves to be anything but ordinary.
The map leads Holmes and Watson into the labyrinthine alleyways of medieval York, where cryptic clues point toward a fortune hidden since 1739. But they are not alone in their pursuit. A gang of Manchester cutthroats, a desperate antiquities dealer, and members of York's prestigious Historical Society all seek the same prize—and they will kill to claim it.
From the stone stairs of York Minster to the ancient keep of Clifford's Tower, from kidnapping in narrow alleyways to confrontation in a Historical Society vault, The Adventure of Turpin's Testament delivers classic Holmes detection. More than a treasure hunt, it is a meditation on the value of truth and the price of silence.
