The Episode of the Barrel

As they await the arrival of the police, Holmes and Watson begin their investigation into the murder of Bartholomew Sholto. Clues abound at the scene of the crime, and they are quickly able to deduce how the murderer entered (the roof), and the murder weapon (a poisoned thorn). They are even able to determine important identifying characteristics of the murderer. With their deductions in hand, Holmes and Watson are ready to set off to catch their suspect. Join them on their journey as their powers of deduction help power you down from the day and into a relaxing night of peaceful sleep.
