The detective rushes to the window, but there’s no trace of the fugitive. They stare out into the shadows of London, and exclaim;

After a chance encounter, the team tracks the assassin to a boarding house before they vanish through a secret door. They’re at a dead end once more - until Jim points out the building’s address.

“Didn’t the Prime Minister stay here when he was younger?”

The landlady nods. “In this very apartment, with some other chap named Richard.”

Jim’s mouth falls open. “And they were roommates.”

The sleuth gasps.

As they were waiting outside near the hot tub, the night air oddly warm around the heated water they saw two men. Friends, or brothers perhaps? Sitting what they presumed five feet apart.

*cracks knuckles* of course!!!
