Loved this. Great Sherlock Holmes style story with an interesting twist. The VO was a bit weird, I dunno if the text has to many commas or something but there was a Christopher Walken quality about it. Still highly recommend it. Would love a sequel.

Great story. Would love a sequel

I couldn't get past the very silly fight scene in the first chapter. A bunch of thuggish, Cockney-accented drunks, all of whom * own horses*! Give me a break.

Ridiculous.
