In The Adventure of Silver Blaze, Sherlock Holmes is hired by a young clerk, Hall Pycroft, who has been lured from a solid London job by a suspiciously generous offer from a new firm. The “employer,” who looks uncannily like Pycroft, sends him to Birmingham on busywork while a look-alike takes his place at the original firm. Holmes, Watson, and Pycroft arrive in time to find the impostor and his brother—the Beddingtons—caught mid-robbery of the stockbroker’s office. The scheme collapses, and the stolen securities never leave the building.

After a draining case on the Continent, Holmes recuperates at a friend's house near Reigate, where a nearby burglary is quickly followed by the shooting of a coachman. Holmes treats the two crimes as connected and focuses on a scrap of a torn note found in the dead man's hand. The trail leads to the wealthy Cunninghams next door, who staged the burglary to hide a forgery and then killed their coachman when he threatened to expose them. Holmes tricks the pair into betraying themselves, and the torn note supplies the proof that closes the case.
