Biography
Background
According to Sherlock Holmes, Morland Holmes doesn't care about his son, and only does what he does out of a sense of familial obligations. Sherlock says he is a serial absentee, and that he has been so since Sherlock was a boy.[1] he sent Sherlock to boarding school when he was eight years old.[2] He owns five properties in New York,[3] although he does not live there.[1] When Sherlock becomes addicted to drugs, he checks Sherlock into a rehabilitation facility in New York. After six months, he moves into one of his father's properties. Mr. Holmes told Sherlock that if he started to use drugs again, or refuse Joan Watson's help as his sober companion, he would throw him out of the brownstone he lives in and out on the street.[3]
Season Four
Morland Holmes takes up residence in New York, apparently to deal with Sherlock's legal and sobriety issues, as well as other business matters. Joan investigates and finds that there was an assassination attempt on Morland two years previous, which resulted in the death of Morland's lover Sabine and Morland being seriously injured. Finding Sabine's killer became a passion for Morland
