In a society where telepathic ability is too often equated with worth, Miss Mary Sutherland is short-Sighted. But that didn't stop her from smelling a rat in Mr. Hosmer Angel's courtship, and her case gives Holmes and Watson the chance to prove that the marriage of true minds requires no magic at all.

Rec: A captivating and unique telepathy AU of the canon story “A Case of Identity,” with a considerably more likable heroine, much more plausible motivation, and vastly more satisfactory ending. With bonus Holmes/Watson and a wonderful insight to Holmes’s character.

Rec: This fic is based on The Seven-Per-Cent Solution, which I did not know before but the relevant plot points are summarized at the start, and honestly it is a very cool premise. If you are at all a fan of ACD Holmes, I very much encourage you to check this one out.

This story takes off after the end of the novel and goes into what happened with Holmes, Watson, and Moriarty during the “great hiatus.” I was absolutely riveted from the very start, as this did a superb job of expanding on the story and revealing yet further depths behind everything that had occurred. The eventual happy reunion is one full of promise, hope, blushes, and delicious stomach butterflies.
