When Sherlock Holmes joins his trusted sidekick, Doctor Watson, at the wake for Brigadier Buffington, they find themselves wondering how the deceased military man had managed to acquire a little known Leonardo da Vinci painting.
After a curious incident or two, the duo begin to wonder if the brigadier had died naturally… or had there been foul play at work. Especially when all signs suggest the painting is a forgery.
Now, Holmes and Watson must sift through the mounting evidence to uncover the motive, means, and opportunity for the crime—before the killer strikes again.
The game is afoot! But this is no mere game—the stakes are life and death.
