Overview

London, 1931. A priceless jewel vanishes in the blink of an eye during a glittering society gala. The only clue: a theatrical half-mask left where the treasure once lay. Whispers ripple through the city - The Phantom of Piccadilly has returned. For most, it is a ghost story. For Sherlock Holmes, it is unfinished business. Drawn out of retirement and back into the heart of London's fog-haunted theatres, Holmes and Dr. Watson find themselves chasing a criminal who is not merely a thief, but a performer - a man raised among the ropes, trapdoors and illusions of the stage. A man who believes every crime is an act, every escape a scene, and the entire city his audience. As Holmes follows a trail of secret tunnels, abandoned playhouses, and personal obsessions, he uncovers a story that began decades earlier - a tragedy involving a legendary illusionist and the son who lived in his shadow. The Phantom does not seek wealth. He does not seek power. He seeks to be seen. To stop him, Holmes must understand not only the crime - but the grief behind it. A tale of identity, legacy, and the thin line between genius and madness, Sherlock Holmes: The Phantom of Piccadilly is a haunting new mystery that brings the world's greatest detective face-to-face with the one adversary he never expected: A man who mirrors him.
