Moriarty the Patriot, Vol. 9

The untold story of Sherlock Holmes’ greatest rival, Moriarty!

Before he was Sherlock’s rival, Moriarty fought against the unfair class caste system in London by making sure corrupt nobility got their comeuppance. But even the most well-intentioned plans can spin out of control—will Moriarty’s dream of a more just and equal world turn him into a hero…or a monster?

The true mastermind behind the Jack the Ripper murders is none other than Britain’s media king, Charles Augustus Milverton. After that case comes to a close, Milverton digs into William Moriarty’s past. And it doesn’t take long for him to discover a certain court case where a boy from the slums sued a nobleman…
