After being convicted of the murder of Sherlock Holmes, Dr. John Watson is sentenced to confinement, therapy, and to the constant companionship of a hologram of his victim to aid in his rehabilitation. While John remains uncertain of his guilt, Sherlock is only too happy to engage in the mystery of his own murder to try and discover why he died and how events set his path to cross with the war ravaged stranger he's now posthumously bound to.

Another work of Nikoshinigami's that I fell in love with. It's an anxious relationship, though. Unlike with stories like "Chrysalis", there's so much right about the setting, and yet you feel the darkness hovering over everything. I cannot but be wary of what is to come.
Still, I love it.
Definitely one of the best authors in the fandom right now.
Same author as:
The Circle of Fifths
