Publisher's summary

Holmes is petitioned by the groom of the Bedlam lunatic asylum to investigate a couple who have appeared at his stables. And after the notorious winter of 1894-5, the politician Mr. Lawler, previously encountered in The Minister and the Moguls, gives Holmes a commission to investigate whether the climate is changing and whether industrialization is the cause.

Holmes' investigation into climate change has surprising results but are just what Mr. Lawler is looking for. Holmes is left to philosophize on the parallels with the outcome of the Bedlam case.

Not a mystery or even a story. An essay on belief

The narrative rhythm is oddly and irritatingly droning with equally odd and distracting breaks in the speech. Not a mystery. Few, if any, Sherlockian deductions.

This is an essay on climate change and a weak comparison of belief in climate change and belief in the Christian nativity story. May be interesting intellectual exercise, but not a Sherlockian story.
