Pursuit to Algiers is an American 1945 detective movie, directed by Roy William Neill and starring Basil Rathbone as Sherlock Holmes and Nigel Bruce as Dr. Watson. This is the twelfth installment to the series of fourteen Sherlock Holmes films starring Rathbone and Bruce.

A king of a fictional state of Rovinia is murdered, and his heir, Prince Nikolas, is currently in Britain. Holmes is asked to escort the Prince to his country.
