Holmes is off to dig deeper into his new case, the murder of Jonas Oldacre. Instead of going to Norwood, he's off to Blackheath, to interview the relatives of the accused, John Hector McFarlane. He knows there's more here than meets the eye, but for once the great Sherlock Holmes is stumped - he simply can't find the evidence he needs to support his theories. Could Inspector Lestrade actually be right for once? As Holmes and Watson ponder the thought, join them in their musings and let this week's story help you into another night of deep and restful sleep.
