An elderly widow drives intruders from her cottage with a shotgun.

Well-dressed gentlemen call at houses throughout Stratford-upon-Avon, politely enquiring after old furnishings -- yet purchasing nothing.

In London, a respected scholar of William Shakespeare is found dead, his passing attributed to melancholy. His closest friend works at a reputable bank -- but keeps very different company once darkness falls.

At the request of a concerned daughter, Sherlock Holmes travels to Warwickshire to examine what may be no more than coincidence. Yet the pattern he begins to trace suggests deliberate design -- and hints that although a certain mathematical mind fell into the Reichenbach chasm, the machinery he set in motion may still be quietly at work.
