Sherlock Holmes has a new case to solve, and it's one that will take him into one of the few domains with which he is unfamiliar: that of amateur sport. Holmes and Watson have been approached by Mr. Cyril Overton, of the rugby union team at Trinity College, Cambridge, about one of their star players who has gone missing: three-quarter Godfrey Staunton. The young man disappeared from his hotel last night after receiving a mysterious telegram, and Overton is desperate to get him back. Adding a wrinkle to the matter is the fact that Staunton is the heir to one of the richest men in England, Lord Mount-James. Though Holmes is not a man for amateur sport, there's still no one better to determine what could have happened to the missing three-quarter. As the investigation begins, let it soothe your mind and carry you off into a night of warm and peaceful slumber.
