Inspiration for Prime Video's Young Sherlock Series, directed by Guy Ritchie

Kidnapped and taken to China, teenage Sherlock finds himself plunged into the heart of a deadly mystery. How can three men be bitten by the same poisonous snake in different parts of Shanghai? Who wants them dead, and why? The answers seem to lie in a message hidden in a diagram that looks like a spider's web. But solving one puzzle only leads to an even more urgent question: What has all this got to do with a plot to blow up an American warship? To unravel the strands that entangle him, Sherlock must brave terrors greater than any he has faced before.

Snake Bite is the exciting fifth book in Andrew Lane's acclaimed series Sherlock Holmes: The Legend Begins.
