The Darlington Substitution Scandal-Wealthy art collector Lord Hector Darlington's priceless painting, The Adoration, has disappeared. The facts Darlington ralates at 221-B surrounding the theft are the classic 'closed room' conundrum within his private viewing chamber. When Holmes and Watson arrive at Darlington's luxurious residence to gather facts and evidence for this new case, his lordship happily annonces that the painting has somehow suddenly reappeared in his spot behind its velvet curtain. The matter seems solved, but evidence Holmes finds when he examines the painting points to something insidious and criminal. Connecting this with the names upon calling cards Holmes has noted while waiting for their client to meet them upon their arrival, Holmes investigates later that day in disguise. The case takes a very dark turn involving organized crime figures from America, an rejected son, Lady Darlington, mounting gambling debts, stolen paintings, forgeries, and, at last, a tragic murder. Author David Stuart Davies unravels the story with uncanny skill equal to Doyle's, and all the characters portrayed by David lan Davies in this recording are pitch perfect.
