While vacationing in Cornwall, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are drawn into a baffling case when three siblings are found in their home—two driven mad and one dead.

lethal substance from Africa called Devil's-foot root, forcing Holmes to weigh justice against morality. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
