The police followed clues and found the owner of the fingerprint - Mr. Hornby's nephew Robin, and accused this gentle young man as a suspect. But can a red thumbprint tell the whole story? Are there any hidden secrets between the revealed facts and the hidden truths? Dr. Thorndike, a smart and keen detective, used his professional knowledge and rational reasoning to make the case take a turn for the worse. The whole process was amazing.
