Synopsis A Swiss scientist invents a bomb sight that may very well decide the outcome of World War II and Sherlock Holmes (Basil Rathbone) is chosen to protect the device and its inventor from falling into the hands of the Nazis. When the inventor is kidnapped, the trail leads to Holmes' old enemy, Professor Moriarity (Lionel Atwill), who plans to sell both the bomb sight and its inventor to Germany. Holmes and Dr. Watson must decipher a code left behind by the missing scientist that will lead them to the device before Moriarity. In this story of Second World War espionage and intrigue, writers Lowe, Darling and Hartmann, along with director Roy William Neill, deliver a Holmes who is as much a national asset in England's war against Germany as he is its greatest detective. Written to appeal to a wartime audience, the film turns the classic battle of wits between Holmes and Moriarity into one of patriotic good and evil in which the stakes are the freedom of the civilized world. **Please be advised that while a great effort is made in restoring these films in their entirety, portions which have been destroyed beyond repair may have been edited out.** Cast & Crew Actors:  • Basil Rathbone  • Kaaren Verne  • Nigel Bruce  • Lionel Atwill  • Harold Becker  • William Post Jr. Writers:  • Edward T.
