Summary

Holmes is struck down by a rare tropical disease and death seems imminent. His only hope lies in a planter from Sumatra whose expert knowledge comes at a price. In the second story, Watson goes to Switzerland to find an aristocrat who has vanished, but the trail leads back to a funeral parlor in London. In the third story, Watson enforces a relaxing holiday on Holmes to cure his work-related exhuastion. The eerie Cornish Coast provides exactly the opposite when death and horror strike a local family and Holmes risks death to solve the case. In the fourth story, Holmes is lured away from retirement to help his country on the eve of World War I and employs one of his most successful disguises to penetrate a German spy ring
