The Stock Market Murders - A New Sherlock Holmes Mystery, Episode 18 (Unabridged)
Description of book
THE STOCK MARKET MURDERS. YOUNG MEN FROM CAMBRIDGE ARE BEING MURDERED. THEY ARE LINKED TO THE GREATEST FRAUD EVER PERPETUATED IN VICTORIAN ENGLAND.
A young man's friend has gone missing. Holmes and Watson go with him to Birmingham to help look for the missing fellow. What they find is horrifying. Two more bodies of young men then turn up in London. All of the victims are tied to Cambridge University. All are also tied to the financial sector of the City and to one of the greatest fraud ever visited upon the citizens of England. The story is based on the true story of James Whitaker Wright and is inspired by the original Sherlock Holmes story, The Stock Broker's Clerk. Any resemblance of the villain to a certain current American politician is entirely coincidental.
