Devatenácté století se chýlí ke konci. Na jeho místo přichází století dvacáté, století změny a vědy – století, v němž budou všechny pověry a předsudky minulosti vyvráceny. Nebo ne?
Někdo se tomu ze všech sil snaží zabránit. V londýnském sněhu je nalezeno rozdrcené tělo. Poblíž nejsou žádné stopy, takže to vypadá, jako by oběť zabil pouhý vzduch. Jde o první ze série útoků, při níž přijde o život několik prominentních londýnských okultistů. Sherlock Holmes a doktor Watson cestují do Skotska, aby se setkali s proslulým Aleisterem Crowleym, o němž doufají, že jim pomůže přijít těmto záhadám na kloub.
Naši přátelé se ocitají v obležení temných sil. Jsou na stopě něčemu neuvěřitelnému a úděsnému, a Holmesovy racionalistické názory podstupují tvrdou zkoušku. Slavné dvojici pomáhá skupina nejslavnějších okultních mozků v zemi: takzvaný „paranormální lékař“ John Silence, vyšetřovatel nadpřirozených jevů Thomas Carnacki a démonolog a odborník na staré runy Julian Karswell.
Budou na tento případ stačit? Londýn se na sklonku století řítí do zkázy a propasti pekla se otevírají, aby mohly pohltit celý svět...
Ponořte se do zcela nového a vzrušujícího případu slavného detektiva Sherlocka Holmese!
