About this listen

Holmes is petitioned by the groom of the Bedlam lunatic asylum to investigate a couple who have appeared at his stables. And after the notorious winter of 1894-5, the politician Mr. Lawler, previously encountered in The Minister and the Moguls, gives Holmes a commission to investigate whether the climate is changing and whether industrialization is the cause.

Holmes' investigation into climate change has surprising results but are just what Mr. Lawler is looking for. Holmes is left to philosophize on the parallels with the outcome of the Bedlam case.

Holmes is engaged to look into climate change in London due to cooling temperatures, and there is also a nativity style christmas story with a baby born in a stable. it's very entertaining.

Not a typical Holmes story but worth listening to and has a connection at the end that pays off.

Surprising but good
