Like all Sherlock Holmes novels the primary themes deal with mystery, murder, and betrayal in some form. In the novel's beginning Sherlock Holmes receives a mysterious cipher message from a man using the pseudonym Fred Porlock. He is linked the notorious Moriarty. This pretty much sets up the themes that I mentioned.
