написано, как мне показалось аутентично (хотя не уверена, что в конце 19 века произошедшее действительно считалось преступлением), но с моей колокольни истории про организованную преступность это дичайше скучно (говорю как человек, который ни одного фильма про мафию не смог до конца посмотреть). то ли дело личные драмы и преступления страсти
A new story about Sherlock Holmes, which nicely follows the style and period of the originals. This one was read masterfully by Derek Jacobi. The story finds Holmes and Watson investigating the theft of some family jewels, but this minor incident is actually just the tip of a most insidious iceberg. They soon find themselves embroiled in several murders, accusations of poisoning and worse. Thoroughly enjoyable.
