The Other Woman

The Redacted Sherlock Holmes

De: Orlando Pearson

Narrado por: Steve White

It is the last night before Watson’s second wedding. Holmes tells Watson of his utter vanquishment by an adversary he never met in a tale set in 1880s Germany and featuring Goethe, Beethoven, Karl Benz, and Bertha Benz.

By the end of this story, the listener would have found out about Holmes’ role in the invention of the motor car, powered flight, and the mobile phone, as well as his involvement in the discovery of a 10th symphony of Beethoven.

For good measure, Holmes also provides his own explanation of the enduring popularity of stories about his exploits and how he has carefully selected what stories he allows Watson to publish to preserve this popularity.

Mechanical Influence

Sherlock Homes, while discussing a case that took place in Germany, before Doctor Watson was an associate reveals his high impression of a woman with good mechanical foresight.

A fun short story

Stories that send Holmes into the genre of historical fiction greatly appeal to me, and this one is interesting as Holmes searches for a lost Beethoven work and finds himself among the first to witness the automobile.
