With loyal Dr. Watson by his side and a scrappy team of street-smart kids known as the Baker Street Irregulars, Holmes unravels a tangled mystery involving a ghostly cargo ship, the venomous giant rat of Sumatra, royal intrigue, volcanic eruptions, and two deadly pygmies. Adventure, deduction, and danger await at every turn in this thrilling tale.
