Andrea Frazer - Holmes And Garden 01 - The Curious Case Of The Black Swan Song - Plot & Excerpts
Mr Budge may have seemed free with his information, but this snippet from his agenda for the day was nothing compared to what he had to tackle later: something which was so well under his hat that, if he’d worn a wig, it would have been under that as well. As it was now a quarter to the hour, the two newly minted detectives returned their newspapers to the reception desk and went outside to walk to the office, both of them lighting up, as they reached the exterior of the building. They were making hay while the sun shone, really, as clouds were slowly but unrelentingly rolling in, and it looked like a return to the previous wet weather so far this summer was on the cards. ‘Wow! That looks just about perfect,’ enthused Garden as he peered through the window, the estate agent not yet having arrived. ‘I wonder what’s at the back and upstairs.’ ‘I’m hopeful there may be further office space behind the front office, so we can have a public face and a private face where we can get on with our work in peace,’ replied Holmes, relighting his pipe which had gone out, a frequent occurrence which he dealt with almost unthinkingly.
