Wilson, a red-haired pawnbroker, is concerned because his unusual employer, the "Red-Headed League," has suddenly ceased its activities, depriving him of his extra source of income.Holmes and Watson discover that Wilson was hired to copy a dictionary under peculiar conditions by this mysterious league, whose only members are red-haired men. However, after a period of diligent work, the league abruptly closes its doors, leaving Wilson puzzled.Holmes investigates and finds that the league was set up by a cunning man, John Clay, to occupy Wilson for a few hours each day, allowing Clay to execute a bank robbery plan through a cellar connected to the establishment where Wilson worked.
