However, she left a photo of her and a letter to Holmes, in which she explained that she outwitted him, was happy with her new husband, and wouldn’t compromise the King as she only kept the photo to protect herself. The following day, Holmes, Watson, and the King arrived at her home to demand the return of the photograph, only to discover that Adler was gone, along with her husband and the photo. Although Sherlock managed to trick her into telling him where the picture was hidden, she quickly realized it was a set up, and then confirmed her theory that the man was, in fact, a disguised Sherlock Holmes. Holmes traced Adler’s movements and learned all he could about her, including her marriage to English lawyer Godfrey Norton. As Doyle depicts him, Holmes is a genius capable of seeing the subtlest of clues and synthesizing them into elaborate theories and solutions. When the King intended to marry Clotilde Lothman von Saxe-Meiningen years after his relationship with Adler was over, he asked Holmes to retrieve a photograph of Adler and him together, as it would threaten his marriage. Character Analysis in The Adventure of the Speckled Band Sherlock Holmes: Sherlock Holmes is a private detective in Victorian London. Adler made her debut in “A Scandal in Bohemia”, and is described as a former opera singer from New Jersey who became the lover of the King of Bohemia. Contrary to Watson, the character that goes through all types of changes and versions is Irene Adler, but there’s a good reason for that.
