I’m hoping to see this film at some point so it’s good to hear it’s an accurate portrayal of the times. It makes a pleasant change.

When nineteen year old Rose Baines returns home from visiting a dying aunt and finds her Mother, sister, and brother massacred by her mad, abusive ex-barrister and now dead Father, her life falls apart.
First she’s shipped off to Bedlam and then, through the intervention of a suspiciously understanding doctor, to Marsh Lunatic Asylum in Yorkshire. Through the good offices of a patroness of the asylum she gets a position as governess to two children at a house on the moors.
Not everything is as it seems; Miss Baines must defeat the ultimate evil and suffer terribly before she takes a final decision and finds love and a measure of peace.

Well that was an amazing end to the series.
Do you want spoilers? I suppose I should give you a clue.
CAM is revealed to be Charles Augustus Magnusson (Lars Mikkelson), a man with more influence and information on everyone, even than Mycroft. CAM is a newspaper magnate with too much influence on the government. Mycroft warns Sherlock to back off, but that’s no going to happen and we all know it.
Sherlock solves the problem as he always does, but Mycroft has to intervene and prepares to send his brother in to exile.
Until an old enemy reappears to call him home.
