Yes, another Sherlock Holmes mystery I read last week was where a wealthy woman had disappeared and the kidnappers were going to bury her alive inside a casket with a false bottom with a really old dead person on top so it would not be questioned..............

Books would have spotted the plan as soon as he so much as glanced at that “extra deep” coffin. There are three or four such improbabilities in the Holmes stories.
