Plot

"A series of seemingly unconnected crimes stretching from Tibet to India to Germany. Sherlock Holmes has been gone for two years. But someone isn't quite convinced that he's dead..."[2][4]

Philip Anderson has been obsessed with Sherlock since his death, and tries to convince Greg Lestrade, another detective, by telling him about certain events that took place in Tibet, India, Germany, and other locations. However, Lestrade was convinced that Sherlock was dead, and tells Anderson he should stop investigating. Lestrade went to visit John, who has moved out of Baker Street since Sherlock's death. He gave John some of Sherlock's old items, including a video message for John's birthday. In the message Sherlock states that he will see John very soon and tells him to have a good birthday without him as he is 'busy'.
