Sherlock Holmes has been missing for three days. Mycroft Holmes visits Watson and is extremely concerned: from the Queen’s stable, three valuable horses have been abducted and also the niece of the secretary for European affairs has been kidnapped. In addition to this, a dark secret persists with the missing niece, and the geopolitical consequences of both cases could be fatal for the Conservative Party and the English government, who would lose respect and credibility in the European community and the British colonies. And to make matters worse, Mycroft Holmes is following the trail of Sherlock Holmes and Irene Adler around some Scottish islands, being certain that they will marry in secret. Mycroft Holmes and Watson are upset by the irresponsible and insane attitudes of Sherlock Holmes, who claims to be on vacation. Although the great detective is aware of the delicate situation, and working remotely, he sends telegrams that allow his brother and Watson to get to the bottom of the truth and solve these complicated cases. Following some clues, a team from Scotland Yard and the secret service goes to the island of La Gomera, with the purpose of finding Sherlock Holmes, capturing Irene Adler, preventing that marriage and recovering stolen jewels, including the Koh-i-Noor diamond. The wedding takes place in a Spanish galleon with the support of a Norwegian captain. However, the situation is confusing and events escape the control of the authorities. On the one hand, Sherlock Holmes has a plan to recover the Koh-i-Noor diamond and annul this marriage. And on the other hand, in one way or another, Irene Adler always wins, and she deceives the detective and his collaborators, dealing an inconceivable blow to the Spanish Crown. Moreover, Watson suspects that previously Holmes and Adler secretly married in Scotland, which is the beginning of an Adler’s sinister plan to become a new European queen...
