Private
eyes Vionna Valis and Mary Kelly (a victim of Jack the Ripper who was
resurrected by the vigilante known as the Black Centipede) join
forces with the ghost of Sherlock Holmes to battle the Lord of the
Vampires, Professor James Moriarty. Moriarty formerly served the
previous Lord, Count Dracula, before betraying and killing him. One
of Moriarty’s vampire henchmen is a Chinese man who claims to have
once been played by Boris Karloff, implicitly Fu Manchu. Holmes and
Moriarty’s fates in this story are irreconcilable with their
established history in the CU. Combined with the
revelation that Moriarty is really Holmes’ oldest brother
Sherrinford, this book, as well as the Black Centipede novels by
Miller, must take place in an AU.
