Sherlock Holmes'

"The Secret Weapon"

Starring: Basil Rathbone & Nigel Bruce

Sherlock Holmes (Basil Rathbone) successfully removes Dr. Franz Tobel (William Post Jr.) from Switzerland to safety in England under the noses of German agents. He comes with a new invention - the "Tobel Bombsight" (perhaps reminding audiences of the real-life Norden Bombsight, which Herman W. Lang of the Duquesne Spy Ring was convicted of disclosing in 1941). However once in England, Tobel secretly visits his girlfriend Charlotte Eberli (Kaaren Verne), and is nearly kidnapped outside her home by the henchmen of Holmes' arch-nemesis, Professor Moriarty (Lionel Atwill), who is still alive after being presumed dead and is now in league with the Nazis.

The next day, Tobel successfully demonstrates his new bombsight for Sir Reginald Bailey (Holmes Herbert) and the British air ministry. Back at Whitehall, Tobel tells Sir Reginald that, while he is willing to allow the British to use his invention, only he will know its secret. Tobel then secretly splits his invention into four parts and gives them respectively to four Swiss scientists now living in London. Soon after, Holmes receives a call from Scotland Yard's Inspector Lestrade (Dennis Hoey) telling him that Tobel has disappeared[1]. However Tobel has left a cryptic message in code behind (taken from the Arthur Conan Doyle story The Adventure of the Dancing Men).

Holmes cracks the code and tracks Tobel down, in the process utilizing his skill in disguises, appearing as a Swiss inventor, a criminal Lascar, and an elderly German bookseller. When the Nazi henchmen take Holmes captive in a house, his companions plant a device under their vehicle which slowly drips luminous paint onto the road. Despite a few false trails from paint tracked by tires, the police follow Holmes to Moriarty's secret headquarters...
