The game is afoot, and even though Holmes may be "indisposed," that doesn't stop him from solving mysteries.
In the late summer of 1920, Holmes has checked himself into a psychiatric clinic on the Normandy coast to quit his cocaine addiction. When Holmes summons his assistant and friend, Watson, to Bolt Cottage, he is intrigued. For when Holmes says, "the game's afoot," he knows this retired detective is up to his sleuthing tricks again.
I had forgotten how dense reading Holmes is, but kudos to Susanne Dutton for being spot-on with the style she used to bring her story to life. As I dropped into this world of mystery filled with twists and turns, I lived in familiar territory. I enjoyed this story from beginning to end and look forward to more of Dutton's work.
If you are a fan of Holmes and Watson's adventures, you will want to read Sherlock Holmes and the Remaining Improbable.
