London's docklands is home to a large Chinese community and is rife with smuggling. Into the fray burst Sherlock Holmes's Irregulars, who find themselves swinging into action to stop a thriving racket shanghaiing children into slavery. And never is the cause more desperate than when one of those children is their very own Rosie.
