Summary

Many writers used Christmas as a backdrop for their stories - among them none other than Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. This delightful Sherlock Holmesstory is one of the first that he authored, appearing in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. It is, fittingly, a wild goose chase through London!

Best Xmas Holmes!

Great reading of one of my favourites! Best listened to whilst coking your Christmas goose! Be wary what you find in its crop. (geese don't have a crop. Perhaps it's a spelling error and should be - Cr#p! )
