London, 1899—A struggling young Persian artist sends Flynn, one of Sherlock Holmes’s Baker Street Irregulars, out to buy provisions for a fabulous celebratory dinner. Flynn is happy to oblige. But when he brings the requested groceries to the artist’s wife, her joy quickly turns to suspicion and fear. Then Flynn returns to the artist’s studio, only to find that disaster has struck.

Meanwhile, the National Portrait Gallery enlists the help of Sherlock Homes to investigate the mysterious theft of The Pink Lady, a famous portrait worth a grand sum of money. As Holmes sets out to recover the precious painting, he uncovers a dark web of deceit far more complex than he imagined. 

When London art collectors begin meeting untimely ends, the Baker Street team must act quickly to find the painting, protect their artist friend, and take down a murderous mastermind. Success will take ingenuity, daring, and a stroke of sheer luck. Are they up to the task? Or will the case of the Five Pink Ladies fade to black?

A fast-paced and thrilling Sherlock Holmes adventure with a labyrinth of intriguing twists and turns. Five Pink Ladies has all the wit and charm of the beloved original series, while offering fresh new mysteries for old and new fans alike.
