The Gloria Scott

The evergreen Sherlock Holmes tale of unravelling a case around a mutiny aboard the ship Gloria Scott with the help of a coded message from one of its survivors.

Sherlock Holmes is challenged by elderly, wealthy Sir James Trevor, during their first meeting, to put his fabled deductive powers to a test—to tell what he can about Sir James' hidden past. Holmes is so accurate that Sir James turns pale and demands to be put to bed. What Holmes has begun to uncover is why the Gloria Scott, on which Sir James was a passenger, was mysteriously lost at sea.

Sherlock Holmes solves a mystery about a rebellion on the ship Gloria Scott by decoding a secret message from someone who lived through it.
