Moriartys death has left an immediate, poisonous vacuum in the criminal underworld, and there is no shortage of candidates to take his placeincluding one particularly fiendish criminal mastermind.Chase and Scotland Yard Inspector Athelney Jones, a devoted student of Holmess methods of investigation and deduction originally introduced by Conan Doyle in The Sign of Four, must forge a path through the darkest corners of Englands capitalfrom the elegant squares of Mayfair to the shadowy wharfs and alleyways of the London Docksin pursuit of this sinister figure, a man much feared but seldom seen, who is determined to stake his claim as Moriartys successor.A riveting, deeply atmospheric tale of murder and menace from one of the only writers to earn the seal of approval from Conan Doyles estate, Moriarty breathes life into Holmess dark and fascinating world.
