Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Silver Earring
 

"In October 1897, Sherlock Holmes, accompanied by Dr. Watson, arrives at a party in the fabulous Sherringford Hall. It was rumoured that the host, Sir Melvyn Bromsby, a construction tycoon, was to make an announcement of great importance concerning his business. Barely had he begun to welcome his guests, Bromsby falls to the floor of his mansion with a gunshot wound to his heart. Who are the suspects? Can the murder be solved? Join Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson to uncover the truth."
