The Norwood Builder case unfolds in London
A fragmented 1908 scene introduces John Hector McParlane charged with murder after a Norwood fire. Dr Watson notes the suspect’s escape risk while Inspector Lastrade and Sherlock Holmes pursue clues, including a torn bedroom, open French windows, and papers scattered amid a blaze. McParlane pleads innocence, claiming no knowledge of the crime and asking Holmes to take the case.
