Author: Sir Arthur Conan Dolye
In London, a secret society led by lawyer Thaddeus Merrydew collects the assets of any of its deceased members and divides them among the remaining members. Society members start dropping like flies. Sherlock Holmes is approached by member James Murphy's widow, who is annoyed at being left penniless by her husband. When Captain Pyke is shot, Holmes keys in on his mysterious Chinese widow as well as the shady Merrydew. Other members keep dying--Malcom Dearing first, then Mr. Baker. There is also an attempt on the life of young Eileen Forrester, who became a reluctant society member upon the death of her father. Holmes' mysterious observations and insights are put to the test.
Once dreamt of being a detective, i like mysterious stuffs and i will definitely try my best to solve the root of the problem. Hence, i also like shows like CSI and Sherlock Holmes is the perfect idol for me to look up to in terms of his style of investigating crimes and solving mystery.
