However Improbable

See justice done: Crooked Man discussion


Listen Later

A violent crime, a terrible betrayal, a shocking death… and mongeese.

From The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes, “The Adventure of the Crooked Man” is a complicated and compelling puzzle of a story that circles around betrayal, disability, empire, real-world events and Victorian geopolitics.

Content warning: CROO is chock full of Victorian racism, ableism, and imperialism. It comes baked into the plot of this one.
