Oh, Holmes, strongman of logic, consumer of sensitive substances and eyes that make a hawk look blind… and an audio theater regular, much, unfortunately, to the abuse of the fine British detective. Forget all the hack-job Holmeses you’ve heard today as our friend at the Quicksilver Radio Theatre delight us again with the diabolical tale on “The Speckled Band.”
Holmes and Watson are awoken in the middle of the night to a frightened young girl who talks of an abusive stepfather and a strange murder… but as clues lead up towards what invariably will be another slaying, can Holmes and Watson act in time to stop it?
