About this episode

This episode discusses cases taken by Sherlock Holmes that involve clients facing financial difficulties rather than crimes.

"Funds were wanting, however" [STUD] Not every case Sherlock Holmes took involved a crime. Often times, clients were dealing with a puzzling situation or a conundrum without a crime. And taking their cases to Sherlock Holmes was the best recourse. And a number of these cases involved clients who were in a bit of a financial jam. Interestingly these cases all appeared in fairly close succession. Coincidence? Perhaps it's just a Trifle. If you have a question for us, please email us at trifles@ihearofsherlock.com.
