Sadly, Sherlock Holmes is suffering from a terrible depression and has been for weeks. Dr. Watson, feeling that he should do something to help his friend, is out one day and watches a woman dressed in widow's clothing drop a claims ticket at Victoria station. He picks it up, but the woman is long gone by the time he looks around to find her. He goes back to Holmes with the ticket, thinking this might be something that would interest him. The article at the station which is the subject of the claims ticket turns out to be a hatbox, in which is stuffed a bloody dress and a knife. This tugs at Holmes' curiosity enough to want to follow the case, and thus begins this adventure. The book was okay. As usual, it was a pretty interesting and fun read but needed a little more oomph. The mystery was interesting, but not up to an original Conan Doyle's greatness as far as Sherlock's deductive capabilities. Otherwise, if you like Sherlock Holmes pastiches, you may enjoy this one, but I've read better. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
