The Baker Street team heads to Lake Windermere, Victorian England's most fashionable vacation spot. But they have no plans to relax and mingle with socialites. They are searching for Lady Belinda, the missing wife of Sir Clarence, a prominent local barrister who has been helping Holmes in his fight against the Syndicate, an evil crime ring led by corrupt policemen.Amy Thiel, another ally against the Syndicate, is also missing, and Holmes believes the cases may be connected.
