The Dark Beginnings of Sherlock Holmes
The Patient's Eyes
When the impoverished young Arthur Doyle opens his first medical practice, he is puzzled by the symptoms presented by Heather Grace, a sweet young woman whose parents have died tragically several years before. Heather has a strange eye complaint, but is also upset by visions of a phantom bicyclist, who vanishes as soon as he is followed. But this enigma is soon overshadowed as Doyle finds himself embroiled in more threatening events-including the murder of a rich Spanish businessman-that call for the advice of the eminent Dr. Bell. But Dr. Bell dismisses the murder of Senor Garcia as a rather unimportant diversion from the incident which Bell considers to have real criminal implications: the matter of the solitary cyclist-and the patient's eyes...
The Night Calls:
Arthur Conan Doyle and his mentor, Dr. Joseph Bell, attempt to track down the perpetrator of several assaults on prostitutes. Meanwhile, Doyle meets and falls in love with beautiful fellow student Elspeth Scott. And, as always, Doyle's experiences provide him with the material that he will one day use to create the tales of legendary detective Sherlock Holmes.
