The Adventure of the Norwood Builder
The Adventure of the Norwood Builder challenges Holmes and his apprentice Ace Tupper to solve the murder of Jonas Oldacre, a house builder in Norwood. Oldacre's lawyer is charged with the murder by Scotland Yard and it looks like an open and shut case. Holmes and Tupper examine Oldacre's house and note that there are peculiar dimensions to one of the rooms. Once again, Holmes astonishes Lestrade with his unorthodox methods, which in this case involve setting a fire in one room of the house with a little straw (with a man told to stand by with a bucket of water to immediately douse it on command) and having three of his constables shout "Fire!". The very much still living Mr. Oldacre emerges from a hidden chamber at the end of a hallway—where Holmes has deduced it must be—and runs to escape the fire. He is immediately arrested for "framing" his lawyer.
CACHE: There isn't much left of the framing here but it is hiding an ammo can.
