If you like Sherlock homes retelling that’s more gender inclusive this is for you. A sorcerers and retired captain team up to solve the mystery of a strong willed/risk taking women who is being blackmailed. Her soon to be marriage to fishmonger women is threatened. This team meets seveal different species and travels to space to uncover this person. It felt like a doctor who adventure almost. John is definitely autistic coded and I just wish they wrote his character as that.
