<h3>221b Baker St.</h3>
<p>
November 1895. London is shrouded in fog and Sherlock Holmes and Watson
pass time restlessly awaiting a new case. "The London criminal is
certainly a dull fellow," Sherlock bemoans. "There have been numerous
petty thefts," Watson offers in response. Just then a telegram arrives
from Sherlock's brother Mycroft with a mysterious case.
</p>

<h3>Aldgate Station</h3>
<p>
Arthur Cadogan West was found dead, head crushed in on train tracks at
Aldgate Station at 6AM Tuesday morning. West worked at Woolwich Arsenal on
the Bruce-Partington submarine, a secret military project. Plans for the
submarine had been stolen and seven of the ten missing papers were found
in West's possession. Mycroft implores Sherlock to take the case and
recover the three missing papers.

<h3>London Bridge</h3>
<p>
Holmes and Watson's investigations take them across London. Sherlock
deduces that West was murdered elsewhere, then moved to Aldgate Station to
create the illusion that he was crushed on the tracks by a train. On their
way to Woolwich Sherlock dispatches a telegram to Mycroft at London
Bridge: "Send list of all foreign spies known to be in England, with full
address."
</p>
</section>
<section id="woolwich">
<h3>Woolwich Arsenal</h3>
<p>
While investigating at Woolwich Arsenal Sherlock learns that West did not
have the three keys&mdash;door, office, and safe&mdash;necessary to steal
the papers. The train station clerk mentions seeing an agitated West
boarding the 8:15 train to London Bridge. Sherlock suspects West of
following someone who had access to the Woolwich chief's keyring with all
three keys.

<h3>Gloucester Road</h3>
<p>
Mycroft responds to Sherlock's telegram and mentions several spies. Hugo
Oberstein of 13 Caulfield Gardens catches Sherlock's eye. He heads to the
nearby Gloucester Road station to investigate and learns that the windows
of Caulfield Gardens open over rail tracks where trains stop frequently.

<h3>13 Caulfield Gardens</h3>
<p>
Holmes deduces that the murderer placed West atop a stopped train at
Caulfield Gardens. The train traveled to Aldgate Station before West's
body finally toppled off. Backtracking to the criminal's apartment, Holmes
finds a series of classified ads from
<em>The Daily Telegraph</em> stashed away. All are under the name Pierrot:
"Monday night after nine. Two taps. Only ourselves. Do not be so
suspicious. Payment in hard cash when goods delivered."
</p>
</section>
<section id="telegraph">
<h3>The Daily Telegraph</h3>
<p>
Holmes and Watson head to The Daily Telegraph and place an ad to draw out
the criminal. It reads: "To-night. Same hour. Same place. Two taps. Most
vitally important. Your own safety at stake. Pierrot." The trap works and
Holmes catches the criminal: Colonel Valentine Walter, the brother of
Woolwich Arsenal's chief. He confesses to working for Hugo Oberstein to
obtain the submarine plans in order to pay off his debts.
</p>

<section id="charing-cross">
<h3>Charing Cross Hotel</h3>
<p>
Walter writes to Oberstein and convinces him to meet in the smoking room
of the Charing Cross Hotel where he promises additional plans for the
submarine in exchange for money. The plan works and Holmes and Watson
catch both criminals.
