Author's summary: "Mediocrity knows nothing higher than itself, but talent instantly recognizes genius." - The Valley of Fear, Chapter 1
Reccer's comments: This is a story about Lestrade rather than one that features him: the 221B takes the form of a conversation between a crime data analyst and the Chief Superintendent. Despite the brevity of the piece, it ends up being a rather profound look into the Detective Inspector's character and his professional relationship with Sherlock Holmes. The understated ending always makes me want to give a quiet cheer.
