Sherlock Holmes lebt! Nur knapp war er dem mörderischen Anschlag auf sein Leben bei den Reichenbacher Wasserfällen entgangen, und nun, so erzählt Dr. Watson über die Wiederkehr seines Freundes und Meisters, stand Sherlock Holmes da und lächelte mich über den Tisch hinweg an. Ich erhob mich, starrte ihn einige Sekunden lang in völliger Verwirrung an und muss dann wohl, zum ersten und einzigen Mal in meinem Leben, ohnmächtig geworden sein. Grauer Nebel wirbelte mir vor den Augen, und als er sich verzogen hatte, war mein Kragen geöffnet, und auf meinen Lippen schmeckte ich den prickelnden Nachgeschmack von Kognak.

But are the assassins targeting the young and progressive Ch'ing Emperor, or his imperious aunt, the fearsome Empress Dowager Cixi? The murder of either could spark a civil war.

I watched as the policeman took out a notebook and read from an open page. He spoke in a whisper. Inspector Lestrade's face turned ashen. He turned towards me, looking grim.

For Sherlock Holmes, Irene Adler was always the woman, but at the end of A Scandal in Bohemia, Dr. Watson had pronounced her dead and gone. However, reports of her death were greatly exaggerated.
