There is a plot to kidnap Queen Victoria and only Sherlock Holmes can stop it...or can he?

Investigating a crime seemingly unconnected to the Royal Family, Holmes & Watson uncover a conspiracy to kidnap Queen Victoria and destabilise the British Empire.

With a ticking clock to her next public engagement, Holmes and Watson must discover who is behind the plot and locate her majesty, while Mycroft tries to keep the monarch’s disappearance a secret from the British people.

At first, Holmes believes Moriarty is responsible for the abduction, but when the Napoleon of Crime is proved innocent, Holmes must work with his arch-nemesis to rescue the Queen.

An Audible Original drama starring Nicholas Boulton as Sherlock Holmes and Kobna Holdbrook-Smith as Dr. John Watson alongside a full cast.

This was a superb Sherlock story with excellent performances from the cast and a plot with many twists and turns. Hopefully Audible produces more.

I love Sherlock Holmes and the chance to enjoy another of his adventures was irresistible. Nothing can compare to Arthur Conan Doyle but this was tremendous fun and the cast, particularly Nicholas Boulton and Kobna Holdbrook-Smith, we’re excellent. The game’s afoot once more...

A rollicking story performed with relish
