The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington Plans: With Accompanying Facts, 10 Illustrations and a Free Audio Link

by Arthur Conan Doyle, Chilli Ink

Overview

The year is 1895, London has been shrouded in a thick fog and Sherlock Holmes grows restless as he and Dr. Watson are confined to their house for several days. The monotony of incarceration is broken, however, as one fateful day, after receiving a telegram informing of his impending arrival, Mycroft Holmes visits his brother and famed detective regarding the apparent murder of a government official named Arthur Cadogen-West. His body was found close to the tracks of an underground railway just outside of Aldgate Station, London. His head was crushed; more importantly, he carried with him ten sheets of paper - plans for the Bruce-Partington submarine. Contained in these notes are secrets that are jealously guarded by the government and would spell disaster if they came into the possession of the wrong hands. Three of the most important pages are missing and Mycroft asks Sherlock for help to retrieve them.

Can Holmes and Watson find the information that could change the world?
