註釋The Sudden Death of Cardinal Tosca: Cardinal Tosca meets his demise during a visit by the Pope in London. The investigations prove to be extremely delicate but are successfully and discreetly conducted by Holmes using his characteristic method. Based on the listing of cases in 'The Adventure of the Black Peter,' Francis London adds an exciting and atmospheric story to the official Sherlock Holmes canon by Arthur Conan Doyle, culminating in an amusing conclusion. The Paradol Chamber: Dr. Watson is initially pleased when it seems that the client visiting Sherlock Holmes at Baker Street might actually need a doctor. However, it becomes evident that the mysterious behavior in question might have criminal undertones. The two friends follow the trail with the help of the Baker Street Boys, and aided by the renowned veterinarian John Abadie, the detective eventually unravels the mystery. Count Negretto Sylvius: The narrative 'Count Negretto Sylvius' is a notable interpretation of the original Sherlock Holmes adventure 'The Mazarin Stone' by Francis London. Based on the original, Francis London narrates in this story how the stone was stolen. Carefully integrating the events at Baker Street as depicted in the original, he subtly alters the story, giving this tale an extraordinary charm and the typical Sherlock Holmes atmosphere. Ultimately, he salvages the reputation of Lord Cantlemere. 'The Mazarin Stone' has never been more delightful to read.
