 What is there not to love about Doyle's writing? He does an excellent job describing the relationships and quirks of Sherlock and Watson. I love how he portrays their relationship and how it came to fruition. I also enjoyed reading about the backstory of the person behind the murder. I won't go into to much detail due to spoilers, but just know that it all connects and works nicely in this short story. Looking forward to reading more in this series!
