In the sitting room of 221B Baker Street, the low fire casts a fitful glow over chaotic shelves and scattered papers. Gaslight from the street paints long, trembling shadows across the floor. Sherlock Holmes moves in a tight, restless circuit, his violin abandoned on the armchair. His greatcoat is darkened by the evening damp, his features drawn and shadowed with exhaustion. He halts, turning toward the door, and his voice is stripped bare, a raw thread of sound. "I will find them. No matter the cost."
