Sherlock Holmes and Dorian Gray

Mysterious socialite Dorian Gray is at the centre of Sherlock Holmes' latest investigation in this astonishing, uncanny mash-up of Victorian mystery and horror.

In 1903, Sherlock Holmes and Dr John Watson have tickets to the newly arrived Circus of Amun-Ra. Holmes is puzzled by his brother Mycroft's cryptic gift but is intrigued enough to attend the next production.

The performers, dressed as wondrous half-animal, half-human gods from Egyptian mythology, display superhuman agility and stunts. However, they speak no Arabic, sequester themselves in the stables after each show, and take orders from a mysterious ringmaster who is yet to be seen. Then, one of the performers is murdered.

Holmes's enquiries lead him to a townhouse near Grosvenor Square, the home of the beautiful and secretive socialite, Dorian Gray. As Holmes digs deeper, he learns Gray is hiding much more than his involvement in a murder, in a darkly fantastical tale of lies, experimentation, hypnosis, and wicked ambition.
