MORIARTY - The Napoleon Of Crime - A Sherlock Holmes Novel - Hardcover

Three years after the Reichenbach Falls, Sherlock Holmes places a leather-bound volume in Dr Watson’s hands: the private journal of Professor James Moriarty, recovered from the coat he left on the cliff path.

It reads as a confession. A brilliant, bullied Durham schoolboy learns that secrets exert more force than fists, and applies the lesson on an ever greater scale until he becomes the Napoleon of crime, the antagonist Holmes would call his intellectual equal.

Watson reads the journal as history. Holmes reads it as evidence.

Told in the Professor’s own words, this is a canon-faithful historical mystery and the first volume of The Victorian Moriarty Saga.
