Product Description
The British public was stunned to hear in 1891 that Sherlock Holmes had died in a violent fight at the Reichenbach Falls with the arch-criminal Professor Moriarty. Instead, to his amazement, he reappeared two years later, telling a shocked Watson, ' So I traveled to Tibet for two years, and entertained myself with visiting Lhasa.' Nothing has been known of those missing years until the discovery by Jamyang Norbu of a flat packet carefully wrapped in waxed paper and neatly tied to stout twine in a rusting tin dispatch box in Darjeeling. Upon opening the package, Huree Chunder Mookerjee (Bengali spy and scholar of Kipling) revealed his own account of his travels with Sherlock Holmes. Now, we're hearing for the first time about Holmes ' encounter with Kim's Great Game and World. We pursue him north through India's hot and dusty plains to Simla, British Raj's summer capital, and over the high passes into the Tibetan plateau's vast emptiness. In the medieval splendor of Lhasa, the shadows are chasing mystery and dark treachery and Sherlock Holmes faces his greatest challenge.
