What is the secret of the shocking death of poor Enid Stoner's sister? What did she mean by her dying words, "the speckled band?" What danger does Enid face from the brutal Dr. Rylott? Only Holmes can scope out the answer and save the helpless girl from certain death. Sir Arthur adapted The Speckled Band (1910) from his own short story of that name. A stage success on three continents, the play hasn’t received a professional revival for eighty-four years.
