    So I've put this on for at least the 20th time. The good news is I won't hear it through to the end. Again! That signifies a solid sleep. I will of course skip forward a little every subsequent night. Your narrations have a beneficial effect on many people. Isn't that great? Cheers Greg! Your readings are singular. 😀

      Me too- have listened to these episodes many times.
      I don't need sleeping pills- the narration slips me into sleep.
      The narrator could bring tears to glass eye.

    I never sleep when I listen to these. I’ve read them a zillion times and seen the videos and movies but listening is Thrilling!!! It’s suspense all over again. Greg is an absolute master! They are all brand new and fresh again and every story I listen to becomes my new favorite…until the next one. Many thanks.

    One of my personal favorites, Greg. After listening to this, I had to immediately go watch the Jeremy Brett adaptation of the same story. The ending where he's so affected by LeStrade's admiration really lands with Brett's performance and is one of my favorite moments in his entire run as Holmes. Cheers, as usual, sir! o/

    Same trope as was used by Conan Doyle in the 'hide the valuable inside a living goose' story. But superior to it, in using a wider canvas, encompassing Italian history and sociology. Beautifully read, as always. Text is a bit down on 'sallow' Italians resident in London during the late 1800s,(they tend to bite) but the author was a man of his times and must be read as such.

    Thank you so much, Greg!!! I started listening to you a while ago , while recuperating from an accident (cracked ribs, damaged rotator cuff, etc, etc). To make matters worse, a few weeks after that I had a serious concussion (May 31st), and I can't even smell, taste or feel yet. I'm very worried, as you can imagine. You have no idea how much your readings are helping me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! 🤗 I am lost for words, everything now is so confusing... It's still hard for me to think in any language 😢 Warm regards from Buenos Aires ❤️ God bless you! 🙏🙏🙏 🏵️

    So if anyone offers you 7 x what you paid for an apparently worthless item beware!!
    I think he should have at least split the money with the owner.
    Very dodgy Mr Holmes an already wealthy man!!!!😮
