In diesem scheinbaren Goldrausch wissen alle Beteiligten genau, dass die Baren gefälscht sind, aber dass man sie für einen großen Betrug gut gebrauchen könnte. Ed Sarg und Joe Grave Digger stellen Ermittlungen an. Sie glauben, an ihrem Ziel zu sein, als sie auf die Leiche einer Nonne stoßen, die in Wirklichkeit ein Transvestit war. Und was weiß die hübsche Imabelle wirklich über die ganze Angelegenheit? Der Fall wird immer komplizierter und mitten drinnen ein Mann namens Jackson.

Story
From an original story entitled "The Adventure of the Six Napoleons", this tale shows how Holmes tracks down a precious gem, secreted by a clever jewel thief in a supposedly perfect hiding-place. The 16 episodes of Sherlock Holmes starring Gielgud and Richardson were produced by Harry Alan Towers (1920-2009) for his "Towers of London" company. They were first broadcast on the old BBC Light Programme in 1954, and by NBC in 1955; they are still regarded by many as the definitive Holmes series. Heritage Media acquired exclusive distribution rights to the series from Towers in 1994; the series was licensed for several years with great success to Hodder Headline and reverted to Heritage at the end of 2009.

Story
From an original story entitled "The Adventure of the Six Napoleons", this tale shows how Holmes tracks down a precious gem, secreted by a clever jewel thief in a supposedly perfect hiding-place. The 16 episodes of Sherlock Holmes starring Gielgud and Richardson were produced by Harry Alan Towers (1920-2009) for his "Towers of London" company. They were first broadcast on the old BBC Light Programme in 1954, and by NBC in 1955; they are still regarded by many as the definitive Holmes series. Heritage Media acquired exclusive distribution rights to the series from Towers in 1994; the series was licensed for several years with great success to Hodder Headline and reverted to Heritage at the end of 2009.
