Overview

London, July. As an unprecedented heat wave grips the city, a series of mysterious fires plague its wealthiest quarters. But these are no ordinary acts of arson-each blaze is surgically precise, designed not to destroy but to reveal. Hidden chambers, concealed documents, and long-buried secrets emerge from behind scorched walls, exposing the disturbing legacy of Victorian scientists who once studied human ""degeneration."" When Sherlock Holmes receives an unsigned letter inviting him to witness the final fire, he recognizes that this case demands more than mere detection. The arsonist is not a common criminal but a true believer-someone who needs a discredited scientific theory to be true, no matter the cost in lives or knowledge. As Holmes and Watson race to prevent a catastrophe at the Royal Society, they discover that the greatest mystery is not who set the fires, but why-and whether the truth can save a desperate man from his own certainty.
