The Sign of the Four - Chapter 3
Step into the fog-shrouded world of London’s late afternoon, where a restless Sherlock Holmes crackles with newfound energy and a mystery hangs in the thick, oppressive air. In this pivotal chapter of The Sign of the Four, the great detective emerges from a bout of fevered research ready to unravel the thorny puzzle that has ensnared Miss Morstan and entangled the memory of her vanished father. A delicate paper once hidden away, a whisper of intrigue from distant Andaman Islands, and the shadowy presence of the late Major Sholto all combine to hint at a truth far deeper and more dangerous than anyone first imagined.
In this episode’s reading, the atmosphere is thick with suspense and ripe with unanswered questions: Who summoned them here, and why? What secrets does that strange diagram hold? And what could possibly tie together the strange legacy of Sholto, the vanishing Morstan, and the tantalizing promise of “justice” waiting just out of sight? This chapter dares you to follow Holmes deeper into the mystery—and offers the perfect taste of the adventure that’s about to unfold. Turn down the lights, lean in, and prepare to be ensnared by the spell of The Sign of the Four.
