BBC Radio 4 - Book at Bedtime, The House of Silk, Episode 10

Having exposed the House of Silk, Holmes returns to Wimbledon, where the case began.

Holmes has exposed the House of Silk but has to return to Wimbledon, where the case began, to discover the link between the house of ill repute and the Flat Cap Gang.

Sherlock Holmes has exposed the dreadful secret of the House of Silk. But still it isn't clear what links the house of ill repute to the destruction of the paintings by the Flat Cap Gang in Boston and the murder of the man in the flat cap at the hotel in Bermondsey. And so he returns to where the case began, at the home of the art dealer, Edmund Carstairs, in Wimbledon.
