In which Watson and Holmes discover that murder is afoot in London and I prove to be a miserable failure at any type of accent from the United Kingdom. This episode's list of interesting words include the following: "hansom", "in statu quo", "disquisition", "minatory", "prognathous", "simious", "florid", and "Parthian shot". Join me next week for chapters 5 and 6, when we finally see some action and Tobias Gregson gets a glorious half chapter all to himself until Lestrade shows up.
