A deadly game of deception unfolds in the fog-shrouded streets of London—where velvet whispers, secrets kill, and Sherlock Holmes hunts a faceless predator.
When a string of wealthy bachelors are found dead behind locked doors—each with no signs of struggle and a single crimson velvet ribbon left behind—the whispers of high society grow louder. The killer leaves no trace. No pattern. Only elegance and silence.
Sherlock Holmes, drawn from retirement by the eerie calm of the crime scenes and the twisted psychology behind them, is thrust into a case like no other. His old companion Watson is thousands of miles away, and in his place steps an unexpected partner: a sharp-witted, emotionally bruised investigative podcaster who's been tracking this killer long before Scotland Yard ever took notice.
Their investigation dives deep into London's elite society, hidden dating apps, underground revenge circles, and the haunting presence of a woman known only by her shifting aliases. She seduces, she vanishes, she strikes—and Holmes suspects she's not working alone.
Is she a modern-day black widow, or the front of something far more organized? As Holmes closes in, he finds disturbing echoes of his past—reminders of Irene Adler, but colder... crueler... and this time, deadlier.
