I just got sacked. I'm permanently drunk. I have cancer. I'm inescapably gay. I was hit by a bus. And, incidentally, I've fallen in love with a stranger whose life I saved. My name is Andrew Thomas, newly-unemployed Sherlock Holmes scholar, and I don't know how to do any of this. I know only Holmes can help me untangle this madness, and he isn't real. Except he absolutely appeared in my house, told me I'm in love with a man I just met, and then in a fit of pique I sent him away. Maybe he's a hallucination or a specter or a ghost (pick one?), but now I desperately need Holmes' help. So to find the answer to my case and the man of my dreams, I'm chasing a fictional character through London with my very own Watson (hi Mina). Business as usual.

I am so thankful to have had Andrew, Matt, Mina, Bev and the whole troupe of players to keep me company while I recovered from a medical procedure.
I'll be the first to admit that it took a minute to get used to our prickly, neurodivergent narrator, but that's kind of the point isn't it? He runs almost everyone the wrong way, but is a real sweetie underneath it all. And the fluttery, sweetness Yvonne described the budding relationship between our two leads just made me melt into sugary goodness.
If you are looking for an unconventional approach to a Sherlockian style mystery, with a healthy heaping of self-discovery and messy relationship dynamics (and who isn't really??), this is the case for you!
