A very thoroughly-researched (it even includes pictures) account of the spaces in Holmes' story which Watson was never able to fill in, particularly the beginning of his practice and “the lost years.”
The stories put forward are completely plausible, though the storytelling itself is just a little wandering and slow to start. It definitely feels like sitting together looking through a scrapbook. I wasn't sure what to expect at first, but once I realized that, I found it interesting and clever!
