A Full Cast Dramatisation.
Once a year, Mary Morstan receives an anonymous package containing a magnificent costly pearl. Aware that the gifts are somehow connected to the disappearance of the father ten years previously, she is both intrigued and frightened by the arrival of a letter summoning her for a meeting in the dead of night.
Accompanied by Holmes and Watson, Mary embarks on a quest which is to lead them through the dark heart of the city, to a one-legged man and an incredible tale of greed and revenge.
Clive Merrison stars as Holmes with Michael Williams as Watson in this adventure, part of the unique fully dramatised BBC canon of Arthur Conan Doyle's short stories and novels featuring the world-famous sleuth.
