What with two versions of Sherlock Holmes on TV, and the Laurie King series with Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes, I've kind of got an interest in related things.Pepper Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00088936125225559789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-49831833082921061212014-02-10T11:51:00.324-07:002014-02-10T11:51:00.324-07:00You should, Margot.
