What do you think Gregson would say about the tea at Scotland Yard that makes it worse than Mrs. Hudson's? 10 CAPs for the best answer. |
Inspector Gregson is here, drinking tea made by Mrs. Hudson again. Guess it can't be that bad if he keeps coming here. Watson, knowing that they serve tea down at the police station, asks why he's here. Seems
Inspector Lestrade sent him, a shocking course of events, as he's at his wits' end. "He didn't travel far to arrive there." We're to solve The Thames Murders, four, now five bodies found floating in the river. The latest is
Roland Jaquard, stepson of Lord
Astley Denham. He was a ne'er-do-well and a womanizer. His days spent being one of the finest Whist players in London, his nights spent in the drawing rooms of the finest families in London. "He wasn't a traveling chambermaid" quips Holmes. Then Gregson puts the names of murder dates of the previous victims in Holmes's notebook.
Incidentally, if you're not familiar with the time period, you could be surprised to hear that the Thames was pretty disgusting around this time, so hopefully poison can be ruled out.
