-The third extract from the casefiles of D.I. Hawes and D.S. Gray-
Edmund Gray was supposed to be on holiday. Well-if a beautiful American private detective invites you to accompany her on a cruise of the Mediterranean, you don't exactly refuse, do you?
But after a sequence of unfortunate events involving a paper napkin, a magnifying glass, and a bad sense of direction, Edmund Gray was back in Oxford, and back on another case.
One attempt had already been made to discover the location of the biggest drugs hideout in Southern England. But after an organised raid on an empty manor house resulted in embarrassment for Oxfordshire Police, the case is turned over to Hawes and Gray to see if they can make any sense of it.

The world's only consulting detective, an ex-army doctor, an art therapist, and an American who loves music. These sound like four very different people, right? Definitely. Em isn't quite sure what she expects to deal with when she decides to leave her home in the US to go and live with her half-sister (Athena) all the way over in London at the address of 221C Baker Street. Being woken up from trying to sleep off her red-eye flight jet lag by all the ruckus being made by her and her sister's new 221B neighbor was not something she wanted to have to deal with right away. However, she storms up the stairs and gives Mister Sherlock Holmes a piece of her mind. How does he respond? What happens when the landlady (Mrs Hudson) suggests Sherlock look for a new flatmate in order to make paying the rent a bit easier on himself? And how does Em and Athena's dynamic with Sherlock change when Doctor John Watson walks into their lives? Something dark and eerie lurks in the shadows, watching our team of four mystery solvers take the world of crime solving by storm. Eventually, things will be revealed about one of our Baker Street Four that will make the other three see them in a whole new light. Well, might as well get started because... the game is on! ▇ ▇ ▇ Pairings: • (Sherlock Holmes x OFC) • (John Watson x OFC) Cover by Timelady2013Complete
