The Case of the Reluctant Footman

An aristocrat has been brutally murdered and the only suspect is a young footman who happens to be brother to Clara, a maid employed at 221B Baker Street. Clara begs Sherlock Holmes to prove her brother innocent. Holmes agrees, and, in unmasking the real culprit, he and Watson uncover a murky and depraved world lurking behind the bland and elegant façade of a London mansion.

I am impressed by this short Sherlockian story. The storyline of "the dirty little secrets" was written perfectly for a Holmes case. The narrator as always did a great job.

A sensitive topic well written
