Synopsis

A gunshot leaves a dead man in an East End alley. A beautiful woman lies dead on the lawns of Windsor Castle. The only certain aspect of a beadle's death is its precipitation by gravity. A mere bump into a gentleman sends an old man to his death amidst Piccadilly's evening throngs. Did the gunshot echo through time and claim the three other souls or had their time simply run out? One man's calibre matches these crimes'. A mathematician's ingenious deviance compounds London's smog as he surpasses his past transgressions and discovers the means to control the future. But his plan is plagued by one man brave enough to play in the web in his criminal parlour. Coerced to alter his modus operandi, this man works on more than one case simultaneously, navigating smoke and mirrors, while trying to earn back a trusted friend, trusting reluctantly in a mysterious Indian and evading death at every corner of London. Can this man emerge a victor in a fight to save something as whimsical as the future of the world? But above all else, will he emerge alive - body, mind and soul? Who is this man? He is. . . Sherlock Holmes!

About the Author

Radkris pays tribute to his father, a veteran policeman, and homage to Sherlock Holmes, his hero in literature, by brewing imagination in this novel and distilling it with exactitude ingrained by his scientific vocation. Radkris also seems to have attempted to learn 'the trick', but he humbly entrusts the reader with this assessment.
