The great detective and his loyal sidekick are at odds. While Dr. Watson has gone to investigate the possible theft of a priceless set of emeralds at the London home of Lord and Lady Delton, Sherlock Holmes remains at Baker Street entertaining his friend, the adventurer, Oscar Dove. Holmes believes his friend is on a fool's errand, but when Dr. Watson reports finding and then losing a body, Watson, Holmes and Dove are drawn into a web of murder, larceny and intrigue. The body turns out to be surprisingly agile, and the suspects range from dubious aristocrats, to doubtful servants, to notorious members of the criminal class.
Arnold Richie will be returning to play the role of Sherlock Holmes.
