The Sherlock Conundrum
The Sherlock Conundrum

You have just received an exclusive invitation to The Scarlet Study, a members-only club dedicated to Sherlock Holmes. When you arrive, the doorman hands you a shoebox.  You open it, expecting a welcome gift of some sort.  What you are greeted with instead, is a severed foot with a note attached to it that says, “The Game.”  The game, in this case, is literally a foot and will lead you on an investigation that includes details from Sherlock Holmes’ most memorable cases.
