# THOU SHALT NOT KILL

"In an isolated village in the English countryside, a series of unexplained deaths begins to occur after Sunday mass, involving parishioners considered irreproachable and without any apparent sign of misconduct. Called in to investigate the case, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson encounter a community dominated by faith, fear, and a disturbing moral logic, in which confession, obedience, and death seem to follow a silent ritual."


# THE TENTH GENERATION

A powerful English family is haunted by a letter written decades earlier, in which the matriarch predicts that a future heir will exterminate his own relatives out of ambition. When the first descendant of the tenth generation comes of age, a series of deaths begins to fulfill, with disturbing accuracy, what had been announced as terminal delirium, casting suspicion on the young heir and eroding collective reason."


# THE S.O.S. ISLAND

"A bottle thrown into the sea and found at the door of 221B leads Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson on a maritime adventure. As the investigation progresses, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson confront a structured, international, and dangerously rational organization, putting not only their own lives at stake, but the ultimate frontier between science, ambition, and barbarism, in a case that exposes how far man can go when he decides to ignore ethical responsibility in the name of what they call progress."


# THE KEY TO INFINITY

"An enigmatic letter leads Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson to investigate the disappearance of a brilliant and controversial scientist, Percivale Goodwin, informally accused of having crossed ethical boundaries intolerable to science. As the investigation progresses, no obvious crimes emerge, but rather a growing climate of collective fear, academic censorship, and moral panic in the face of a misunderstood idea."


# THE GHOST SHIP

"In the depths of winter in London, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are called upon to investigate the terrifying account of a sailor who claims to have encountered a ghost ship responsible for ritual executions in the fog of northern England. Upon arriving at the Port of Whitby, they encounter real deaths, collective fear, and a succession of apparitions that seem to defy all logic, leading even Watson to doubt his own sanity."
