The Sociopath: A BBC Sherlock Fanfic
{SUMMARY: EDITED} Follow the exciting life of the consulting detective, Sherlock Holmes as him and his flatmate, John Watson, try to catch James Moriarty, a consulting criminal who is only known to them as the "Invisible Man". However, it isn't long until both find out his true name, and the detective himself finds out his true identity. Things get turned for the worse when Sherlock comes up with what he believes a clever plan, a plan that he keeps secret, in order to beat the consulting criminal at his own game. But it could be that Moriarty has messed with the sociopath's mind. . . Which means he may be going mad. But despite all of this, and keeping this secret away from John, Mr Holmes is a restless man, and he will not stop at nothing until he has caught---and stopped--- the enemy(Dr.Watson, however, is less determined). With an IQ above average and being a highly-functioning sociopath at best, and a detective partner who happens to be a doctor at his side, Sherlock is on a wild hunt in which the scent gets nearer. . . . But the trail is getting fainter every time he is one step closer. The game is on. . . {FANFIC WRITER'S NOTE: The reason why I edited the summary was because I realized I turned it into something totally different than how I planned it. Fortunately, it has turned out better, haha. And so, in this Sherlock fanfic, rather than focusing on the detective solving cases, it's focused on his confrontation with James Moriarty and how he tries to defeat him. Some things are like in the TV Show, but I'm going to make things different or add stuff. I hope you've enjoyed it so far!}Complete![Little Game Of Ours [BBC Sherlock Fanfiction]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/32574993-256-k778005.jpg)
