Sherlock Holmes is called to Boscombe Valley in Herefordshire at the request of a young woman. A neighbor who had known her father in Australia has been killed, apparently by his son. Holmes’s client is in love with the son and believes that he is innocent. Even with all the circumstantial evidence pointing to the son’s guilt, Holmes believes the evidence may actually point to his innocence. While the outcome is predictable, Holmes is at his best as he deduces the killer’s physical characteristics and habits from the clues that everyone else has missed. ( )
