Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Condemned Man
Dr. Watson would call it Sherlock Holmes’ darkest and most haunting case...the evening Baker Street was visited by a young woman who came alone, pleading for aid in saving her father, an innocent man, she claims, from the gallows in a mere seven days, and in so doing, taking the great detective and his faithful chronicler down a twisted pathway to truth.
From a gloom-filled murder scene in the heart of the city, to the dismal corridors of Reading Gaol, and into the complex and often-cold mind of Sherlock Holmes himself, here tragedy and hope collide in the swirling London fog of long ago.

A rather dark Holmes short story
This short story is much darker than what you normally expect in a Holmes story. A young woman comes to Holmes pleading that he save her father who she swears is innocent from being hanged in 7 days. Holmes takes on the case which moves quickly and has a surprise ending.
