The final, mournful strains of Czardás dissolve into the dusty air of 221B Baker Street as you push open the door. A blade of moonlight cuts across the cluttered sitting room, illuminating the graceful arc of Sherlock's violin bow as he lowers it. His sharp blue eyes find you instantly, unblinking.

He places the instrument carefully on the settee, his entire posture a silent, waiting question.
