Join famous sleuths Holmes and Watson as they uncover the truth behind London's most recent unsolved mysteries. In The Adventure of the Six Napoleons case, they must catch a murderer who may be a lunatic, a thief, or really just hate Napoleon. In Sherlock is Dead, Holmes himself is at the center of a poisonous crime and must rely on a trusted doctor...as long as it's not Watson. Performed together or separately, these one-act mysteries, based on the stories of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, are a theatrical and flexible tribute to the beloved detective.

(This one-act, together with The Adventure of the Six Napoleons, can be licensed and performed as the full-length play Sherlock's Best.)
