    Summary

    Two years of shared tea. Two years of raising a child and solving cases within the walls of 221B. Two years of a domestic peace so fragile that neither of them dared to breathe the truth aloud.

    But when Sherlock’s mother dies, the 'Baker Street Boys' finally run out of excuses. In the wreckage of a Holmes family collapse, John realises that two years of waiting was two years too many.
