9th December 1888
With the whole of London under the shadow of fear created by the ‘Jack the Ripper’ murders. Holmes has been working under cover in Ireland doing important work infiltrating Fenian gangs at the request of his brother Mycroft.
Holmes has been so engrossed in his current work, playing the part of an Irish cobbler. I hadn’t heard from Holmes for at least four months, then news of the Whitechapel murders reached Ireland. I received a telegram:
Tell Inspector Abberline to look for an American medical man
Yours SH
It would seem Holmes even when working deep undercover can’t ignore the Ripper Case. He spends so much of his time bored waiting for an engrossing case then two come at the same time. Holmes will no doubt see his current commission though but I think he would much rather be here in London hunting down Jack the Ripper.
I anyone would like this to continue just leave a comment
