Happy Holidays! As a mystery lover, Christmas reminds me of one of my favorite Sherlock Holmes stories, “The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle.” The mystery starts with a dropped hat and a Christmas goose left behind.
The following recording is from the Sherlock Holmes audio archive of stories, many of them (including this one) narrated by none other than Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce as Holmes and Watson. My favorite team! The recording includes the classic touches of dramatic organ interludes and even a couple of commercials. I hope you’ll enjoy it.
Let the adventure begin!

May your Christmas be filled with fun and mystery!
Until next time,
Kathy

What a lovely idea for Christmas! Thanks, Kathy! All the best to you and those you love!
Thanks so much, Margot, and a Merry Christmas to you and yours!
My husband is a Sherlock Holmes fanatic. I think he has every single Basil Rathbone VHS tape that exists.
Have a very happy Christmas, Miss Kathy! Here’s to an awesome 2017 filled with lots o intrigue.
