I WANTED this to be the second book that saved the first from mediocre, watered down Sherlock. That’s not the worst part, the worst is that there is no mystery, no trail of clues, no twists. There was no mystery at all… Anyone could see it was the man with the grudge. NO other suspects existed. But the weird bit is this, it read well… It felt like the Sherlock we all k ew and loved, just on his most boring and mundane cases. not worth reading unless you miss the British voice of beautifully worded sentences.
