The Angel of the Crows by Katherine Addison
3.0

It was an incredibly interesting take on Sherlock Holmes with characters that were endearing and surprising in a well thought out AU but it was spoiled by a weak ending. Spoilers below







Skipping Reichenbach fall weakened the story incredibly especially when, as an angel who couldn't fly, there were so many strong paths forward. Additionally- randomly tracking the killer one day, while possibly realistic, isnt at all interesting. It left me wondering why I had spent so much time caring about that storyline.
It was annoying because it was so good right up til the end
