About this episode

When Inspector Lestrade brings news of a vandal destroying plaster busts of Napoleon Bonaparte across London, Holmes initially dismisses the case as mere mischief. But when the strange obsession turns deadly and a man is found murdered, the detective's interest is thoroughly piqued. What could possibly connect these shattered images of the French emperor?
