Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Moriarty is the second Sherlock Holmes story by Anthony Horowitz which, oddly, doesn't feature the detective at all.Set immediately after the events at the Reichenbach Falls, American detective Frederick Chase arrives searching for an American crime-boss: the mysterious Clarence Devereux.With Moriarty dead, a power vacuum has been left in England's underworld allowing Devereux to smoothly fill the void, leaving Chase only a small window of opportunity to apprehend the villain before he disappears back into the safety of anonymity. Joining Chase is Inspector Athelney Jones, a follower of Holmes' methods, who won't allow such evil to fester in his homeland unabated.

Adaptational Heroism: John Clay and Archie from The Red-Headed League who help Jones and Chase in the investigation, with Clay also asserting the murder Holmes attributed to him in passing in that story was a Crime of Self-Defense.

comment
Absence of Evidence: Even after finding Devereux's lieutenants, Chase and Jones have nothing on them that connects them to wrong-doing. Inspector Hopkins believes in the presence and influence of Dvereaux and his organization due to how all of his informers, and various other petty criminals who roam the streets have suddenly been disappearing.

comment
Adaptational Nationality: During the book various details of Professor Moriarty's life are brought to light by the man himself directly informing the reader including the fact that he is Irish. While Moriarty being part or entirely Irish has always been a common fan theory - 'Moriarty' was and is a common Irish surname but was almost unknown in England and Conan Doyle, himself of Irish descent, would have known this - in the canon his nationality isn't commented upon beyond the implication that he's not 'foreign'.
