The fourth short story in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes,
"The Boscombe Valley Mystery," gives us a host of sayings and
tenets of Sherlock Holmes's philosophy. But there are also a number
of things that seem contradictory.
In this Masters Class episode, Nick Utechin's look at another
mystery within this story serves as an exemplary bit of scholarship
that deserves a deeper look. It's just a Trifle.
