Eight traditional Sherlock Holmes cases from the pen of Paul Metcalfe.

The Case of the Australian Atlases: As Inspector Lestrade asks "why, gentlemen, would someone break into a house, murder the owner and then steal only one volume of an Australian atlas, when all three volumes were there for the taking," more atlases are stolen before Holmes solves the mystery.

The Derringley Towers Mystery: Inspector Gregson calls Holmes for assistance in the gruesome murder of Lord Derringley's footman. His Lordship's son is the prime suspect, but he is only 14. Holmes unravels a complicated tale to discover the shocking truth.

The Curious Death of Amos Amberdale: A man is stabbed in the back inside a room with the window locked, and the door locked and bolted from the inside. Lestrade is baffled as usual, but the unusual murder weapon leads Holmes to find out how it was done, as well by whom.

The Case of the Nervous Neighbour: Mrs Marwood's neighbour has stopped being polite and charming and is becoming increasingly agitated. His wife and maid have disappeared—are they really in Leicester? And who is making all the noise next door?

A Cry for Justice: Tradesmen find a skeleton buried in a back yard. Holmes first has to find out who the victim is and when he was murdered, before finding the murderer. A cold case with very few clues which tests Holmes's scientific approach.

The Questionable Existence of Mrs Carberry's Companion: Mrs Carberry has enjoyed the company of her lady companion for two months when one day she doesn't come down to breakfast. Her room is empty, and the housekeeper and all the villagers swear she never existed. Does she exist, and, if so, where has she gone? These are questions Holmes must answer.
