"The Adventure of the Engineer's Thumb," one of 56 short Sherlock Holmes stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is the ninth of twelve stories collected in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. The story was first published in Strand magazine in March 1892. Dr. Watson notes that this is one of only two cases that he personally presented to Sherlock Holmes.
The story, set in 1889, consists mainly of a young London consultant hydraulic engineer, Mr. Victor Hatherley, who relates strange events from the night before, first to Dr. Watson.
Hatherley had been visited in his office by a man who identified himself as Colonel Lysander Stark. He offered Hatherley a commission at a country house to examine a hydraulic press used, as Stark explains, to compress Fuller's earth into bricks. Stark warned Hatherley to keep the job confidential, offering him 50 guineas (£ 52 10s, a whopping sum at the time, worth more than £ 4,000 today [1]). Hatherley felt compelled to take this job, despite his misgivings, as his business had recently been established and he had very little work.
