The Beryl Coronet - Part Two
2/10/202644 min
BAD BOOKS - The Great Detective Huckton Bruce was a frustrating character for two reasons, the first being; he's not real. The second being; because of him I was now stuck, after hours, in an antique bookshop that smelled like my Nan's flat. The locked-room melodrama continued into the night as Sherlock sent his Irregulars to go and do the fun stuff.
