Loved that one. Okay, I really was applauding when Mary left (not my case, I've seen her interpreted more to my liking) but seriously, John and Sherlock are just the right mix of messed-up, loneliness and angst. The story doesn't span a big time frame, thus the narrative is very direct and precise. It's about an event, not a character story. WendyBird became one of my favorite authors within the first two chapters. The subtle method to tell Sherlock's return captivated me.
