The Tall Man

from Sherlock Holmes: Trifles · host Scott Monty & Burt Wolder

"I have never seen so tall a man" [SIGN]  Our series on the Apocrypha of Sherlock Holmes continues on, with a slightly different entry this time. Previous examples have been fully developed stories; this is simply a story outline.   How it surfaced is just as interesting as the outline itself, perhaps more. The reader/listener will be left to decide if this could have made a full-blown story. Ultimately, it's just a Trifle.  If you have a question for us, please email us at [email protected].
