Description

An ambitious clerk is offered the job of a lifetime—but Holmes suspects the offer hides a far more sinister scheme 🧑‍💼📉

“When something appears too good to be true, it often conceals something too dangerous to ignore.” — Sherlock Holmes

The Stockbroker’s Clerk

Hall Pycroft, a bright young clerk recently laid off, finds himself swept into a lucrative job opportunity that seems suspiciously perfect. Unsure whether to celebrate or worry, he brings the matter to Holmes, who sees through the promise of easy fortune to something far more elaborate. As Holmes and Watson investigate, they uncover a cunning plot with a double identity, a false company, and a dangerous game being played with one man’s trust.

This sharp tale of manipulation and greed reminds us that con artists often wear the most respectable suits.

Written and created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
