Sherlock Holmes - Vigor the Hammersmith Wonder and Other Stories

Only Sherlock Holmes, Watson and a motley band of music hall artistes stand between England and invasion by a Foreign Power! The murder of a boy by village bullies leads to the uncovering of a dastardly plot against the Royal Navy.
The strongman in a music hall act disappears with a lady of the chorus, leading to a murder investigation that uncovers a cunning scheme to undermine Britain's naval supremacy and leave her ships helpless in the face of her enemies. In the second of six stories told by Watson in the traditional style, with perhaps a wry twist, a safe is blown at a jeweller in the City of London. Suspicion immediately falls on a professional safecracker, but is all as it seems? Doctor Watson is forced to operate at gunpoint on a wounded thief while Holmes follows slender clues to rescue him. To what lengths will Holmes go to rescue his friend? A British officer is released from captivity by Burmese bandits and Holmes is called in to establish his bona fides. Is he who he purports to be, or an imposter coveting the family title and estates. Jabez Wilson's pawnbroker's shop, the scene of the Case of the Redheaded League, may be at the centre of another conspiracy. Holmes returns to Sax Coburg Square to unravel the mystery. Lastly, the misogynist composer of a popular jingle fears his work is being plagiarised, but is he the true author of the song? Sleuth with Sherlock Holmes in these traditional short stories, narrated by Doctor Watson.
