    Summary


    A ‘Good Omens’ x ‘The Mysterious Mr Quin’ Fusion Mystery

    ~~~

    Agatha Christie’s Messrs Quin and Satterswaithe are surely the most obscure pair of mystery solvers created by the Queen of Crime. ‘The Mysterious Mr Quin’ stories have their own, special flair of magical realism. The duo’s usual method of operation - to solve a mystery in order to reunite lovers and save lives - is put to the ultimate stress test in the year 1941 in this, their newest, case - where the stakes are ineffably high!

    And in Mr Satterswaithe’s estimate, Mr Quin behaves even more mysteriously then ever. But the attentive reader who is also a Good Omens fan may have the one or other ✨Clue✨ advantage over him…

    Summary

    "Harlequin performed gracefully on the stage, steps spritely as he danced attentively with fair Columbine, seemingly only focused on her. But to the keen-eyed, of whom there were few in this particular audience all having since become enraptured by his dance, his intent could not have been any further from her. Instead, his eyes gazed besotted and unmoving to the old man in the balcony box. Harlequin grinned a mischievous smile towards the man, face bright with the sharp, unbridled delight that came from knowing one shared a secret with someone much cared for."

    Even at Christmastime, the busy theatre can be a place of joyful reunion between friends and lovers.

    Summary

    The curtain had fallen on the three acts; it seemed that all had been resolved.
    Yet as Mr Satterthwaite sat by the fire, he found that he could not help but reflect on an element of the tragedy that had gone unanswered, one that concerned a certain Mr Harley Quin and the near-constant impression of his presence ever since that fateful evening at Crow’s Nest.

    Summary

    The Complete Cases Of Sherlock Holmes And John Watson. All 366 cases plus assorted interludes, hiatuses, codas &c.

    1889. The Moriarty Years, Part One. An epic struggle between good and evil begins, one that becomes ever more deadly as time goes on. It starts with a romantic interlude albeit one with sombre undertones in Dorsetshire, then a dead body on a train, a room with a view, and John's worst fears being proven right (again). Then there is a possibly too-tidy maid, some practical jokes with evil intent, dead bodies all over the place in Devonshire, dead bodies indirectly causing trouble in Wiltshire, vanishing thumb-prints, a most Faithful policeman, two dogs stolen and two more used for very different purposes. And John gets to visit an area of England that will become very dear to him, and one day far into the future, his home.

    Summary

    The Complete Cases Of Sherlock Holmes And John Watson. All 366 cases plus assorted interludes, hiatuses, codas &c.

    1888. Having been Abroad for so long, Sherlock finds himself inundated with work upon his return. What with plagued professors, accursed ancients, devious diplomats, slippery stockbrokers, infuriating inheritors, bothersome brothers, pernicious politicians and Oriental obfuscations, the great detective is becoming severely stressed – and despite a rest cure that sees the dynamic duo temporarily all at sea over some stolen jewels, there is worse to come. Multi-tailed cats, serial killers, sore losers and bruised batmen are bad enough (though John does get to meet someone Important in his friend's life, or at least sort of meet), but then a face from the past shocks one of them to the core. And to cap it all Sherlock comes close to being killed!

    Summary

    "It occurred to Mr. Satterthwaite that he couldn’t quite place her accent. A young American lady educated in Switzerland, perhaps? She was dressed like one of those WAAFs, or Wrens, or something — he was unsure of the exact uniforms of the women’s auxiliary services."

    Mr. Satterthwaite’s fertile imagination immediately seized hold of the mask, and with no prompting whatsoever drew up the man whom it would fit perfectly – a tall, dark man with a narrow back, a lithe step, and a sardonic smile.
