Rachel Westlake is the most promising young detective at the Scotland Yard. Under Lestrade's watchful eye, she is quickly becoming an intuitive, valuable member of the investigative team. So when the best surgeon in London vanishes without a trace, Lestrade immediately puts Rachel up for the investigation. But there's a catch; she's not alone. The Dynamic Duo as Sgt Donovan begrudgingly calls them have volunteered their services. Sherlock Holmes, the world's only "consulting detective", and his partner John Watson, a retired Iraq veteran and army surgeon, threaten to pull Rachel's case right out of her hands. The choice is hers: roll over and hand her first real assignment to them willingly, or fight back and prove her worth to Mr. Holmes. But will the case turn out to be more than she can handle?

All is Fair in Love and War
A Sherlock fanfiction. Moriarty is back, and everyone knows it. A tragedy strikes the Watson household. Dozens of little crimes pop up all over London. A Minister of Parliament vanishes. What does it all mean? And meanwhile, England's favorite flatmates are forced to re-evaluate the extent of their live-in relationship. This is my first Sherlock fanfic, so please do give me as much constructive criticism as humanely possible. Likewise, it's slash (imagine that). If John and Sherlock being in a relationship is a problem for you, you may not want to read this. On that note, I should likewise add that I intend this to be the darkest story I have written to date. Expect character death, torture, violence, sexual content, and etcetera. Enjoy.Complete
