OverviewWhen young Edward Varnham seeks Sherlock Holmes's help, the case seems straightforward enough: a prized ivory tusk, brought back from his grandfather's distinguished colonial service in East Africa, was stolen from the family's Belgrave Square townhouse-only to be mysteriously returned weeks later, wrapped in brown paper with no explanation. As Holmes and Watson delve deeper, they uncover a web of secrets extending back to 1878 and a ""pacification campaign"" in the Mombasa territories. In this morally complex tale, Holmes confronts a case where justice is incomplete, where good people have been complicit in terrible deeds, and where the comfortable narratives of Empire conceal uncomfortable truths. Some mysteries, Watson discovers, are solved not with brilliant deductions alone, but with the courage to face what has long been hidden.
