In this uber-long (our apologies!) episode, Claire Daines returns as a temporary co-host for our very first canon story discussion! We go through the entirety of A Study in Scarlet, including research Claire has done to see what Doyle got right and wrong about the Mormons (and some research Madeline has done to see what Doyle got wrong about his American geography). There's also a lot of talk about the characters of Holmes and Watson — PTSD, youthful energy, saving each other, and more! And we do get around, eventually, to shoehorning Professor Moriarty into the story, because we wouldn't be a Moriarty podcast otherwise!
