convention to sell a series of his sketches based on the Holmes
canon. He isn't exactly popular with other attendees, and when he
turns up dead after the banquet, Gemma sets out to find the killer.

handsome Corporal Richard Sterling of the NWMP searches for the
murderer, Fiona’s son Angus takes a job as a photographer’s
assistant, a new dancer almost causes a riot, and Fiona tells
