Set against the backdrop of impending war, this story shifts from traditional detective mystery to a spy narrative featuring Sherlock Holmes. Uniquely narrated in the third person, it diverges from the usual perspective of Dr. Watson. The portrayal of British and German spies reflects the tensions of the time, and its publication during World War I imbues it with patriotic themes, suggesting it served as a morale booster for British readers. This piece stands out in the Holmes anthology for its historical context and thematic depth.
