Again, I felt that this story was solved based on resourcefulness and this time a bit of luck by running into the guy they needed to talk to. It was an interesting story, but I didn't feel it was as good as others.

Well, this was quite the relaxing Christmas story on a gloomy Christmas day as the one I'm having. I finished it all on Christmas Day!



While I think it was a bit cliche as where the Blue Carbuncle was located, I still rather much enjoyed the story. Instead of it being stuffed inside the goose (where Ryder thought it was), Holmes and Watson still have it safely placed in their safe to return to the Countess of Morcar's. I think the best part was seeing Sherlock forgive James Ryder (the head attendant of the Hotel Cosmopolitan) in the in the spirit of Christmas instead of sending him straight to jail. I loved it! 


I'm kind of hungry for a Christmas goose now...lol XD

Fun Sherlock Holmes tale with some snippets I recognize from Sherlock. A lovely single edition from @DauntBooksPub. Never knew what a carbuncle was before.

Charming listen that’s well narrated by Alan Cumming. I enjoyed the light holiday theming as well as the ending. A nice way to spend 30ish minutes.
