Summary
The elections were fast approaching, and it was time for Mycroft Holmes to take a personal look at the latest candidate dominating the opinion polls, in line to become the next Prime Minister. On the surface, the leading man seemed perfectly average, though serviceable: relatively attractive physically speaking, with moderate opinions, well spoken, but with little distinctive flair. His one remarkable point was his wife, who might have been responsible for no small share of his popularity. Overall, the candidate and his wife put on an excellent act: an adoring husband with a confident wife, but Mycroft is a hard man to fool. However, even he had not expected to like her quite so much – it was one thing to know that she was charming and another thing entirely to experience her warmth and charisma at first hand.
