   Summary

   Sherlock Holmes leaves on his suicide mission at the end of His Last Vow, with no miraculously timed message that cancels his exile. His mission is to travel to Russia and discover what he can about Putin's plans for the Crimean Peninsula before his time runs out. Meanwhile, the people back in London struggle to deal with Sherlock's absence, until a series of events means that London needs Sherlock again. But can Sherlock be rescued in time?
