"Somewhere in the vaults of the bank of Cox and Co., at Charing Cross, there is a travel-worn and battered tin dispatch-box with my name, John H. Watson, M.D., painted upon the lid. It is crammed with papers, nearly all of which are records of cases to illustrate the curious problems which Mr. Sherlock Holmes has at various times to examine."

221B: On Her Majesty's Secret Service (2025)

A Holmes pastiche with James Bondian flair. Why not.

JUSTICE HAS AN OLD ADDRESS 
221B is more than an address on Baker Street...it is also the code-name for special agents of Her Majesty's Secret Service who are called upon to combat extreme threats to the Realm-Sherlock Holmes, Loveday Brooke and Dr. John Watson.

Now they face their most deadly challenge-a shadowy futurist organization called the Hephaestus Ring conspires to subvert the Paris World's Fair and use the opening of the Eiffel Tower to unleash a new terror weapon.

Headed by the by the most infamous and ruthless masterminds of the 19th century, the Hephaestus Ring weaves a web of international greed that will change history and command the future.

221B is mandated to find and stop the megalomaniacs at the heart of the colossal scheme-if Holmes, Loveday and Watson manage to stay alive long enough!
