The Adventure of the Engineer’s Thumb

Victor Hatherley, a young hydraulic engineer, arrives at Baker Street with a horrifying tale: a midnight job in a remote country house that ends with him fleeing for his life—missing a thumb. Hired to repair a hidden press, Hatherley quickly realizes he’s stumbled into something far more dangerous. Holmes and Watson investigate the shady employer, piecing together a trail of deception, false identities, and industrial crime. This gripping tale moves from mechanical mystery to full-blown survival, offering a rare case where Holmes must work after the crime has already struck.

This episode showcases the darker undercurrents of Victorian industry—and the brave few who live to tell the tale.

Written and created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
