The Adventure of the Empty House, one of the 56 Sherlock Holmes short stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is one of 13 stories in the cycle collected as The Return of Sherlock Holmes. Public pressure forced Conan Doyle to bring the sleuth back to life, and explain his apparently miraculous survival of a deadly struggle with Professor Moriarty. This is the first Holmes story set after his supposed death at the Reichenbach Falls, as recounted in The Final Problem. The Hound of the Baskervilles had seen the return of a pre-Reichenbach Falls Sherlock Holmes, which only served to whet readers' appetites.

Chicky Diaz is everyone’s favourite doorman at the Bohemia, New York City’s world-famous home of celebrities, financiers, and the cultural elite. In the basement staff room, the life-and-death stakes of daily life are hardly news to the primarily Black and Latino hospitality.

A Ricardo Arrate le llega una señora, con una terrible sospecha: le preocupa que su esposo sea un asesino. El orate toma el caso, porque le parece interesante. Va encontrando que, en torno al hombre, hay muerte. Como el caballo de Atila: donde pisaba, no crecía la hierba.

Ricardo Arrate tiene un caso en un club al que acuden viudas. Han asesinado a dos de ellas, en sendos fines de semana. Salieron solas; y las encontraron en callejones oscuros, acuchilladas. Les robaron. Pero es mucha casualidad, que les sucediese lo mismo a ambas. Como Arrate estuvo, en una ocasión, y conoció a la presidenta, ella va a buscarlo, para contratarlo. Las socias han hecho una colecta. Están muertas de miedo. Ricardo les dice que les hará una rebaja, en los honorarios, porque le interesa el caso.

Ricardo obtiene un caso que parece muy claro: un fulano contrata a alguien para que liquide a su esposa. La policía opina eso, así como la madre de la asesinada; suegra, por ende, del que pagó el crimen. Pero no lo pueden demostrar. La señora le pide, a Arrate, que busque la manera de aclarar si el yerno fue el autor intelectual. Ella está segura, pero al policía: no. Es complicado encontrar a un asesino a sueldo. Pero Ricardo lo intentará. Tal vez pueda dar con algo que involucre al yerno.

Ocasional es lo que sucede, o se hace, en alguna ocasión; pero no de forma habitual ni por costumbre. Un asesino ocasional es aquél idóneo para una vez, por la razón que sea. No serviría para otra. Mata a uno, y ya no repetirá.

Encuentran un cadáver en un edificio abandonado. Es un reportero muy conocido, al que han estrangulado. Eso dijo la televisión, aunque una revista fue más específica: es el basurero al que el alcalde envía a sus adversarios. El mandatario contrata a Ricardo, para que investigue quién mató al tipo. Jura que él no tiene nada que ver con ello, aunque el fulano era una verdadera molestia.
