Welcome to Sherlock Holmes Short Stories. I'm Hugh Bonneville, and from the Noiser Podcast Network, this is The Final Problem, Part 2. Last time, Holmes and Watson fled from London, attempting to escape the clutches of the brilliant Professor Moriarty. With the professor's crime network about to collapse, thanks to Holmes's diligent efforts, the great detective's nemesis was determined to get his revenge. Moriarty was last seen speeding through the woods of Kent, while Holmes and Watson took a detour to New Haven, and from there onwards to Dieppe. But as they continue their flight across the continent, one question remains unanswered. How long can they hope to evade the so-called Napoleon of Crime?
