Not that I recall. The Norwood Builder would be an obvious one to try.

This thread seems to be growing increasingly cryptic - I am unsure if
this is by design or not. I'm not sure I am following the discussion
fully. If I am not, and have blundered where I shouldn't have, I
apologise...

There is a book titled 'S. H. and the C. P. Murder' but it is written by Johanna Rieke, not by Arthur Conan-Doyle. C. P. appears to get mentioned
in "The Adventure of the Dancing Men", but doesn't take a leading role.
