Summary: The Great Detective and The Good Doctor are pitted against a psychotic villian in a race against time to stop the bizarre murders in an eerie country manor.
As the host of a radio drama show, trust me, I have heard a LOT of Sherlock Holmes adaptation. And this is the very best.
The difference is that Quicksilver is very serious about interpreting each work they do fresh without being weighed down by the baggage of previous attempts, and this delivers the best of the best in this quintessential Holmes tale.
The characters are spot-on, effects are superb, the music amplifies the story, and by the end of it you'll marvel not only by how well they pulled this off, but that they did it all live!
