Whilst still set during WWII, this outing for Holmes and Watson is less to do with Nazis and more to do with good old-fashioned greed. Set in a stately home that is being used as a home for convalescing officers; our pair of sleuths are asked to investigate after one of Dr. Watson's patients there dies in mysterious circumstances. This is a welcome return to the more traditional storylines associated with Conan-Doyle and, as such, makes for a much better story. There is also a little humour, with Halliwell Hobbes great as the slightly (permanently) sozzled butler.
