Travelling on the Flyaway Highway, the pair find themselves embroiled in various unexpected exploits including ‘The Adventure of the Knightly Deed of High Enterprise’, ‘The Adventure of the Scream in the Night’, even ‘The Adventure of the Place where there are no Adventures’, a strange place indeed!
