“You and Mr. Holmes must find my daughter. Bring her back to me.” “Do you believe your daughter is alive?” “I know she is.” I raised an eyebrow that Mr. Parker noticed. “My wife died when Elizabeth was two giving birth to another daughter that passed as well.

The note Sleep didn’t come easy to me that night. I kept seeing the writing in my head: I am sorry, please forgive me, and Judas. When morning came, I found Holmes’ mood had not improved. We walked together back to Mrs. Brookstead’s house. “What do you intend to find?” I asked. To which HolmesContinue reading “The Snake and The Rabbit”

Run! Jack run. Again there was silence from Jack. “If you keep silent,” said the innkeeper, “I will talk. These fine gentlemen would like the real story, not my version.” “All right,” Jack whimpered. “See, trouble I have for a long time. Mum was good bout gettin’ me out. Last time, I needed money orContinue reading “The Snake and The Rabbit”
