The calling card bears only two initials:
H.B.
Watson sees the obvious problem. There must be a thousand men in London with those initials.
Holmes sees something else.
“Which is why the initials are the least interesting thing about it.”
In the gray morning light of 221B Baker Street, a seemingly insignificant piece of paper yields its secret—and sends Holmes and Watson back into the streets of Clerkenwell.
Their destination is Bell & Hart, Papermakers & Printers.
There is just one difficulty.
The shop has been closed for seven years.
And the card was made recently.
The mystery deepens in Part Three of The Adventure of the Silent Bell, the first case in Chesterton Radio’s original illustrated series, The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes.
New cases. New clues. New corners of Victorian London.
And we’re playing fair: everything Holmes sees, you can see too.
Can you solve the mystery before Watson does?
Or before Holmes tells us what we’ve missed?
