Sherlock Holmes et l'Arme secrète (1942)
Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, Sherlock Holmes favorise la fuite du docteur Franz Tobel, inventeur d'un viseur novateur, et le protège des nazis qui le recherchent. Le docteur part se réfugier à Londres, et inquiet de la portée de son invention, décide de confier à quatre scientifiques connus par lui seul, une partie de son œuvre et remet à sa fiancée Charlotte une codification des noms de ces quatre hommes avant de disparaître. Holmes se met à sa recherche et très vite comprend que l’immonde Moriarty est sur les traces des quatre scientifiques.
