"The Sign of the Tooth" is a story that takes place in Victorian England. The protagonist is Dr Watson, a medical student who has been asked to visit a patient, mr Lockhart, at his estate. Lockhart suffers from severe toothache and demands Watson's aid as he believes that he can cure his affliction.
Watson soon discovers that Lockhart's toothache is only the latest symptom of a much larger problem, and suspects that it may be related to a mysterious gold dust called "mad gold". Lockhart refuses to talk about his condition and insists that Watson not contact the police. This only sets off Watson's curiosity as he slowly realizes that there is something sinister at work in Lockhart's house.
With only a few clues to go on and facing the possibility that Lockhart may have committed a horrific crime, Watson must find out what exactly happened and why. As he begins to investigate, he finds himself falling deeper into a web of lies and deceit, with no one he can trust. Along the way, he encounters a group of characters who may hold the key to the mystery.
"The Sign of the Tooth" raises questions that have been previously hidden within Conan Doyle's canon and explores themes such as patient confidentiality, violence, and mental illness. It also provides a unique glimpse into the early days of Sherlock Holmes and his partner, Dr Watson. Through this story, Doyle encourages readers to think critically and be wary of those they least expect.
