Devatenácté století se chýlí ke konci. Na jeho místo přichází století dvacáté, století změny a vědy – století, v němž budou všechny pověry a předsudky minulosti vyvráceny. Nebo ne? Někdo se tomu ze všech sil snaží zabránit. V londýnském sněhu je nalezeno rozdrcené tělo. Poblíž nejsou žádné stopy, takže to vypadá, jako by oběť zabil pouhý vzduch. Jde o první ze série útoků, při níž přijde o život několik prominentních londýnských okultistů. Sherlock Holmes a doktor Watson cestují do Skotska, aby se setkali s proslulým Aleisterem Crowleym, o němž doufají, že jim pomůže přijít těmto záhadám na kloub. Naši přátelé se ocitají v obležení temných sil. Jsou na stopě něčemu neuvěřitelnému a úděsnému, a Holmesovy racionalistické názory podstupují tvrdou zkoušku. Slavné dvojici pomáhá skupina nejslavnějších okultních mozků v zemi: takzvaný „paranormální lékař“ John Silence, vyšetřovatel nadpřirozených jevů Thomas Carnacki a démonolog a odborník na staré runy Julian Karswell. Budou na tento případ stačit? Londýn se na sklonku století řítí do zkázy a propasti pekla se otevírají, aby mohly pohltit celý svět... Ponořte se do zcela nového a vzrušujícího případu slavného detektiva Sherlocka Holmese!

The first official guide to the BBC hit series Sherlock. Fans of Sherlock Holmes will already be familiar with The Great Game -- in which all characters and events in the novels are assumed real and discussed accordingly. BBC hit Sherlock has brought Conan Doyle's legendary detective to a whole new audience and Sherlock: The Casebook is The Great Game for the next generation. This is no ordinary guide. Each case is brought to life on the page and re-examined through Dr Watson's blog, Inspector Lestrade's police reports, newspaper articles about the crimes, Sherlock's detective notes and any other surviving clues from the cases. Interspersed amongst the evidence are exclusive interviews with the stars of the show, Benedict Cumberbatch, Martin Freeman and Rupert Graves, writers and co-creators Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat and the production team on everything from writing the scripts and bringing the characters to life on screen to set design and production. This is a multi-dimensional companion to Sherlock and a glorious tribute to the world-famous detective.

Sherlock Holmes is the world's most famous detective, featured in numerous TV series, movies, and radio programs. This book vividly brings the world of 221b Baker Street to life.

A box contains a door, which leads to an entire world beyond.

A weird western, a gun-toting, cigarillo-chewing fantasy built from hangman’s rope and spent bullets. Wormwood has appeared, and with it a doorway to the afterlife. But what use is a door if you can’t step through it? Hundreds have battled unimaginable odds to reach this place, including the blind shooter Henry Jones; the drunk and liar Roderick Quartershaft; that most holy, yet enigmatic of orders, the Brotherhood of Ruth; the inventor Lord Forset and his daughter Elisabeth; the fragile messiah Soldier Joe and his nurse Hope Lane. Of them all, Elwyn Wallace, a young man who only wanted to travel west for a job, would have happily forgone the experience. But he finds himself abroad in Hell, a nameless, aged gunslinger by his side. He had thought nothing could match the terror of his journey thus far, but time will prove him wrong. On the road to Hell, good intentions don’t mean a damn.

One day every hundred years, a town appears, home to a doorway to Heaven itself. In 1889 the town's due to appear somewhere in the American west. Many hope to be there: Obeisance Hicks and Soldier Joe; Henry and Harmonium Jones and their freak show pack of outlaws; the Brothers of the Order of Ruth and the inventor of the Forset Thunderpack...
