  • "The Adventure of the Golden Pince-Nez" is one of the 56 Sherlock Holmes short stories written by British author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. It was first published in The Strand Magazine in 1904 with illustrations by Sidney Paget. It is one of 13 stories in the cycle collected as The Return of Sherlock Holmes.
  • In the story, Inspector Stanley Hopkins of Scotland Yard asks the brilliant consulting detective Sherlock Holmes to help him investigate a mysterious case of murder. The murder victim was a young man named Willoughby Smith who had been the secretary to an elderly invalid known as Professor Coram. Smith shared a house with the Professor and two female servants. One of those servants found Smith, fatally wounded but not yet dead, after he had been stabbed in the neck with a small knife. A pair of woman's pince-nez spectacles were later discovered in Smith's hand. Curiously, since Professor Coram is obviously male, Smith's last words were, "The professor - it was she".
