Main content

Two train passengers disappear, but the sleuth is more intrigued by the contents of a dead man's pockets. From December 2000.

Series of four new tales of mystery and murder by Bert Coules, inspired by the stories of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

It takes more than a vanishing pair of railway passengers and a corpse that appears out of thin air to interest a bored Sherlock Holmes. But then he learns what the dead man had in his pockets.
