une nouvelle de Arthur Conan Doyle
(Author) Sir Arthur Conan DoyleDes statues en plâtre de Napoléon sont retrouvées brisées dans différents endroits à Londres. Lestrade, inspecteur à Scotland Yard, développe une théorie selon laquelle ils ont affaire à un forcené détestant Napoléon. Sherlock Holmes ne croit pas à cette théorie, car toutes les statues qui ont été retrouvées détruites sortent du même moule. Pourquoi un antinapoléonien s'en prendrait-il seulement à ces statues là? Et bientôt, on retrouve dans une maison non seulement une statue brisée, mais aussi un corps sans vie. Sherlock prend alors l'affaire en main.
