<p>Back by popular demand, here is another Sherlock Holmes short story on LEP. This one tells the suspenseful tale of a young engineer 👷 who accepts a well-paid but mysterious job. In classic horror movie style, he ignores so many red flags 🚩 and warnings ⚠️ and ends up paying the price for it! But, can Holmes and Watson make sure that justice is served? I tell the story and explain some details and words along the way. Story text and summaries available on the episode PDF.</p><p>Get the PDF with story text, vocabulary list and vocabulary quiz here 👉 <a href="https://teacherluke.co.uk/2026/01/26/sherlock-holmes-the-adventure-of-the-engineers-thumb-learn-english-with-a-short-story-973/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://teacherluke.co.uk/2026/01/26/sherlock-holmes-the-adventure-of-the-engineers-thumb-learn-english-with-a-short-story-973/</a></p><p>Episode page 👉 <a href="https://teacherluke.co.uk/2026/01/26/sherlock-holmes-the-adventure-of-the-engineers-thumb-learn-english-with-a-short-story-973/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://teacherluke.co.uk/2026/01/26/sherlock-holmes-the-adventure-of-the-engineers-thumb-learn-english-with-a-short-story-973/</a></p><p>Sign up to LEP Premium 👉 <a href="https://www.teacherluke.co.uk/premium" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.teacherluke.co.uk/premium</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
