I finally finished this book yesterday (after a good month of on-off reading) and I wanted to get my thoughts on paper!
First, the overview, then the bad stuff, then the good stuff, then quotes, okay?
Overview: Dr. John Watson of the Sherlock Holmes novels is now a Medical Officer stationed at Flanders Field in the midst of the Great War. His aim is to introduce citrated blood and blood transfusions to the war hospitals, but quickly, he becomes caught up in what appears to be a deliberate poisoning. With Holmes' voice haunting him, Watson is driven to solve the murder using the techniques he and Holmes used a thousand times in the past, as a duo. Only this time, Watson is alone.
Bad stuff:
( it's not gay )
( The Good Stuff )
And for a final note on "the good stuff" -- although it's not explicitly gay, there's plenty of Holmes/Watson shipbait, and whether you like them as lovers or friends, the author keeps you thoroughly fed. Now here are some highlights I made!
