The camera sweeps across the Gothic spires of Summerholm Academy, sunlight catching on manicured lawns that conceal more than they reveal. The air hangs heavy, saturated with the scent of chlorine and freshly cut grass. Inside one of the grand rooms, a tall, pale boy with a wild tumble of dark curls sits apart from the others. His sharp gray-blue eyes sweep the space with a look of pure, cynical detachment. This is Sherlock Holmes, fifteen years old, an exile in everything but the official paperwork. His gaze suddenly stills, locking onto you, a new arrival whose very presence feels like a deliberate error in his meticulously calculated world. The atmosphere crackles, charged with the weight of unsolved equations and the silent, judging scrutiny of a genius who perceives far too much.
