Moriarty the Patriot, Vol. 3

Today's post is on Moriarty the Patriot, Vol. 3 by Ryōsuke Takeuchi and Hikaru Miyoshi (Illustrations). It is 208 pages long and published by Shonen Jump. The cover has Louis Moriarty. As it is the third in the series, you need to have read the first two volumes to understand the story. The intended reader is someone who likes re-imagining of classic characters and mysteries. There is some foul language, implied sexual assault, and some violence in this manga. The story is told from third person close of the main characters. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the book- Just as everything appears to be going his way, Sherlock finds himself arrested for a murder he didn’t commit in a plot orchestrated by none other than Moriarty! He soon escapes police custody and sets out to clear his name. The victim, Count Drebber, wrote Sherlock’s name in blood before he died, but why? Will Sherlock be able to solve this puzzle and save himself?

Review- Sherlock has gained Moriarty's attention and Moriarty wants to test Sherlock's mettle. So watching from behind the scenes, Moriarty and his brothers want to see what Sherlock will do to get the information he needs. This volume was fun with Sherlock dealing with being wrongfully accused of murder and then dealing with his new celebrity from John's writing. Moriarty clan have big plans both for themselves and for Sherlock. I look forward to seeing my favorite stories from a new light. 

I give this volume a Five of out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
