The investigation into the stolen naval treaty continues. After a few final questions for Percy Phelps, Holmes and Watson make their way back to London to question more persons of interest in the case. There's a stop at Scotland Yard for more information from Inspector Forbes, and then it's off to Downing Street to question Phelps's uncle, the powerful foreign secretary Lord Holdhurst. The clues are falling into place, and all that's left is for Holmes to put them all together. As he does, let his deductions fill your mind and help you move away from your day and into an evening of peaceful slumber.
