It is 1876 and a 22 year old Holmes is studying at St Bartholomew’s Medical College. With his intense stare and unorthodox methods he has already gained a reputation as an eccentric but brilliant man. He meets fellow student Stamford (the man who will in years to come introduce Holmes to Dr Watson).
When suspected intruders are sighted at the British Museum, Holmes is called upon for his opinion, but before he can solve the mystery, an unthinkable and audacious crime is committed. Holmes and Stamford are in a race against time to prevent a priceless treasure from destruction, and when the burglary case turns to murder they must take action before more victims are killed.
