Thank you so much, dear anon! This was just fantastic. From beginning to end, Watson-voice to sly references to other cases, it felt and sounded just like ACD wrote it himself. I was particularly tickled by your cleverness in making the 'villain' of the piece far less villainous than many of the secondary characters. I'm also very happy about the way you resolved Maisie's situation. Holmes' actions in defending her were entirely characteristic, and one of the reasons the ACD original is so well-remembered.

Brava, anon! I'll be rereading this one often, and grinning every time I do.
