The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington Plans, Part 1
5/6/202639 min
A fog has descended upon London, both literally and figuratively, as Sherlock Holmes cannot find a single criminal case to excite his interest. An unexpected telegram from his brother Mycroft shakes Sherlock out of his boredom, however, as it promises to be a case that will finally challenge his intellect. It's serious enough that Mycroft upsets his routine and comes to Baker Street himself, along with Inspector Lestrade of Scotland Yard. A young man named Arthur Cadogan West has been murdered on the Underground, and he was carrying top-secret government documents that are now missing. Sherlock Holmes is the only one who can solve the case, so he and Watson prepare to set off on a new investigation. As they do, let their story help you prepare to set off into your own night of deep and restorative slumber.

IONOS doesn't want Steve to own your dream. Right now, someone like Steve is brainstorming business ideas, and he could type in your brand name. If he clicks buy five minutes before you do, he owns the URL for your great idea. Don't let Steve win. For one dollar, lock him out. Secure the dot com before he hits enter. Go to ionos.com to claim your domain before Steve does. That's I-O-N-O-S dot com. Cinco de Mayo only comes once a year, so let's celebrate big. When I'm getting ready, Total Wine & More is my go-to, especially for a backyard taco night. I'll grab crisp beers, easy-drinking wines, and maybe a fresh sangria to share. With the lowest prices, it's easy to stock up and keep the fiesta going. Make your Cinco de Mayo plans official. Shop Total Wine & More in-store or online. Spirits not sold in Virginia and North Carolina. Drink responsibly. Must be twenty-one.
