But with the government, the military and even his own brother turning up the pressure, can Sherlock unravel the web of secrets,

One of my all time favourite Sherlock Holmes adventures. Conan Doyle gives us a murder, foggy London, missing plans, Mycroft Holmes, the London Underground & sparkling dialogue. Have I read it too many time already ? Probably. Will I read it again ? Definitely!

Holmes’s brother, Mycroft, has come about some missing secret submarine plans. The three missing pages of the plans could enable one of England’s enemies to build the submarine and use it against her.
