Sherlock Holmes in The Adventure of the Greenwich Certainty (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798248549849)

When a distinguished astronomer is found dead in a locked observatory at Greenwich, the case appears devastatingly simple. The suicide has been documented with scientific precision: three chronometers stopped at the exact moment of death, powder burns confirming close-range discharge, and medical testimony from independent physicians. The inquest reaches its verdict in six hours. The matter is closed.

But the widow of Sir Edmund Carrick knows something the authorities do not: her husband's death came just days after he made an astronomical discovery that would shake the British Empire to its foundations-a discovery that powerful men would kill to suppress.

Sherlock Holmes must do what he has never done before: restore doubt to absolute certainty. As he and Dr. Watson pursue the truth from the domes of Greenwich to the streets of Berlin, they discover that this murder was not just planned-it was
scientifically engineered. But someone has made a fatal error. And in the world of Sherlock Holmes, even the most perfect certainty can be unmoored.

Sherlock Holmes always solves the mystery. But in this case, solving it may not be enough. When science itself becomes the weapon of deception, even the great detective must choose between justice and the stability of an empire.
