![]() ![]() When a murder follows Holmes getting involved, the trail leads him and the good doctor to a powerful secret society known as the House of Silk. London art dealer Edmund Carstairs asks for the detective%E2%80%99s help after a shadowy figure in a flat cap, apparently an Irish-American thug bent on revenge, surfaces near Carstairs%E2%80%99s Wimbledon home.
