A thick smog has fallen over London. Mycroft comes to visit his brother Sherlock Holmes, asking for his help. A ten-page secret document has gone missing and three pages have just been found... in the pocket of Arthur Cadogan West?s lifeless body. He was discovered near Aldgate tube station with his head smashed in and with only a little money, the confidential pages, and theatre tickets on him. Strangely, he had no Underground ticket. The document is a construction plan for the Bruce-Partington submarine and it is feared that the document may fall into enemy hands. "The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington Plans" is part of "His Last Bow".
The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington Plans
In the third week of November, in the year 1895, a dense yellow fog settled down uponLondon. From the Monday to the Thursday I doubt whether it was ever possible from our windowsin Baker Street to see the loom of the opposite houses. The first day Holmes had spent in crossindexing his huge book of references. The second and third had been patiently occupied upon asubject which he had recently made his hobby--the music of the Middle Ages. But when, for thefourth time, after pushing back our chairs from breakfast we saw the greasy, heavy brown swirl stilldrifting past us and condensing in oily drops upon the window-panes, my comrade's impatient andactive nature could endure this drab existence no longer. He paced restlessly about our sitting-roomin a fever of suppressed energy, biting his nails, tapping the furniture, and chafing against inaction.
