Description

Richard Lancelyn Green was the world’s leading expert on Sherlock Holmes. A lifelong collector, historian, and passionate Holmesian, he spent years uncovering long-lost treasures tied to Arthur Conan Doyle. But in March 2004, Green was found dead in his London flat under circumstances eerily reminiscent of the detective stories he adored.


Was it suicide, an accident, or something far more sinister? This episode of Mysteries at Bedtime unravels the strange twists of his final days — from secret archives and disputed literary estates to a mysterious garrotting and unanswered questions that still puzzle investigators today.
