Като последен роман за Шерлок Холмс останах разочарована. Действието се развиваше бавно и този път не успях да почувствам връзка между героите и мен. А може би просто вече да съм се наситили на случаите с детекнива, тъй като през последната седмица и половина чета само за него.
Very interesting story. I really was really surprised at the ending, wasn't expecting Birdy to be who he was. But it was very well written and very thrilling.

A single mystery plus it's back story that was surreal and not quite in the way it was intended. Freemasons = unions = mafia/racketeers in Pennsylvania in the 1850s. WTF? The Sherlock Holmes bit is decent. The "back story" is kind if appalling.
Stephen Fry nails it again. This, like the first novel, is split into two halves. This first is about how Holmes solves the case. The second half is describing WHY Holmes was needed.
The first half was very enjoyable, the second not so much. I can see why it would have been a good read back in the day, but it has lost something over the years.
Still a good read and am glad i have read it.
