<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Long established as the world’s greatest detective, Sherlock Holmes now finds himself embroiled in a case that might, in the twilight of his career, bring about an end to his long pursuit of his nemesis, Professor Moriarty.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The King of Bohemia calls on Holmes (along with Dr. Watson) to protect his impending marriage from ruin, as a romantic rendezvous with famed singer Irene Adler comes back to haunt the King when she threatens to expose his infidelity.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Meanwhile, under Moriarty’s command, a host of crooks lend themselves to a treacherous scheme with hopes of Holmes’ demise. Is Holmes prepared to sacrifice himself to rid the world of the evil Moriarty? Or does Holmes wish to die with his enemy?</FONT></P>
