Klappentext

Two unlikely flatmates. One decade-old murder. Can thinking like a fictional detective . . . solve a real crime? Sherlock Holmes's No. 1 fan attempts to solve a murder - and drags his reluctant flatmate with him, in the feel-good mystery of the summer.

But the case (inevitably) goes disastrously wrong, and his new flatmate, James Watson, faces a dilemma: is it really his job to rescue Sycamore, solve the murder and generally save the day?
