Book I : Fantàsticque :: The Estranged Trilogie ::: A Sherlock Fanfiction

What you think is true, is definitely, most certainly not true.

It could be half true; your mind could even be playing tricks on you.

It might not be the truth at all.

For all you know.

Enter Francesca Dela-Cruz Arlington. She's a high stakes poker player in the game of life.

Miss Arlington gambles her dignity and secrets for truth and answers. Difficult, yes-but never has she lost.

Not yet.

And who knows who her next victim will be?

Life is her high-stakes poker game and you are her poker table.

And no one knows truth better than her.

Except for Holmes, perhaps.

When one goes to the other in a final act of desperation to face a new adversary from the past, panic insues and ruination is inevitable.

This is the last key to all her answers and the last obstacle to surpass, the biggest one of them all.

Deadly illusionist and criminal mastermind, Le Fantàsticque or better known as the Phantom.

But don't worry-all games are meant to end sometime...

Even if the game is life.
