"What you do in this world is a matter of no consequence. The question is what can you make people believe you have done" ~Sherlock Holmes, A Study in Scarlet.
Emily Schott wants nothing more than satiation; a lust for destruction, for carnality and, most importantly, vengeance on those who snatched away her ability to trust. Desperate measures and an unprecedented incident leave her a shell of her former self - her antidote? A glass of vodka, a drunk plea, and sin in a Westwood suit.
Life in Baker Street continues. The unattainable man finds himself doubting his own, cold reason, challenged by a shy smile, a mess of scars, and a brilliant mind. Millie Shon, the subconscious, John Watson, the heart, and Sherlock Holmes, the head, can only watch as a new, ruthless partnership pushes the boundaries of crime itself.
'Obsession' /əbˈsɛʃ(ə)n/
Noun: A compulsive, often unreasonable idea or emotion; a fixation with a person or object.
Two bullets. Two shots fired. One promise fulfilled.
"A fantastic book...the emotion poured into it is overwhelming" -purplepopcorn65
