A very well done short story, but it definitely pays to be very familiar with Sherlock Holmes before reading this, otherwise the twist might not work so well. Loved the concept, honestly mainly just wish there was more.

A real favourite, this story of a consulting detective and his faithful friend in Lovecraftian London pursuing the murderer of a German Crown Prince. Deliciously clever.
