Sherlock Holmes, legendary sleuth of Victorian London, is asked to authenticate the work of what appears to be a long-lost Shakespearean play. Alas, just as the famed detective is about to announce his conclusion, the manuscript is stolen. As Sherlock and his trusted sidekick, Dr. John Watson, begin to unravel the mystery of the missing play, their investigation leads them on a convoluted but logical path.
