Holmes and Watson celebrate the winter season with a literal wild goose chase in “The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle,” from The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes.

This story is filled with holiday cheer, home museums and the benefits of private detection. As we approach the end of our year, we look back on Holmes and Watson’s busy year, and contemplate Holmes’s hypocrisy, the archetype of the private detective, and what’s looming in the year ahead.
