The Five Orange Pips

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

A violent storm rattles the windows of Baker Street as a young man arrives with a story that defies reason—and invites death.

When John Openshaw receives a mysterious envelope containing five dried orange pips, he fears he has inherited more than his family estate. His uncle and father both received the same warning… and both died under sudden, unexplained circumstances soon after.

Now the threat has come for him.

Sherlock Holmes is drawn into one of his most chilling and urgent cases—a web of secrets stretching from the American South to the quiet English countryside. As Holmes unravels the meaning behind the cryptic symbol “K.K.K.”, he must race against time to stop a ruthless and invisible force that never fails to deliver its deadly promise.

Dark, atmospheric, and relentlessly suspenseful, The Five Orange Pips stands as one of the most ominous tales in the Sherlock Holmes canon—where logic meets terror, and even the great detective may arrive too late.

Narrated with precision and depth by Richard Stibbard, this classic mystery captures the tension, dread, and brilliance of Arthur Conan Doyle’s timeless storytelling.
