Soon after the escape, Holmes&#039; brother Mycroft asks him to work at identifying a leak in British Intelligence. Uncharacteristically, he refuses to help until he realizes that Moriarty is behind the missing State secrets. He learns that a very seductive woman, Sophie DeVere, has been hypnotizing one of Mycroft&#039;s young assistants to steal the information. When Moriarty is unable to decode the secret message he has stolen, he kidnaps Mycroft in order to get the information.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ----<br /> * [[Conan Doyle on screen]]</div>
