"And as you see here, this student has figured out a beautiful way to give an incorrect answer." Amelia wasn't really paying attention to what her professor-Mrs. Devans-was saying at the moment.

"Paul? You don't have to invite us to dinner every Sunday." "I know. We just like having you guys come over." "You're already on tap to win 'Best Brother of the Year" award again, so it's not like you need to keep looking out for me." "Abby? I know you can take care of yourself—and Trevor.

------------------------------------- England's greatest detective is away in the Balkans and sexual blackmail is afoot in centre court. Can the good Doctor save Miss Maude Oakes from a fate worse than being beaten by the American challenger or will it be love all? ------------------------------------- It's often said that doctors make the worst patients...
It's often said that doctors make the worst patients and I was feeling fretful enough to prove the point. Still, it was a day that would cause any Londoner to chafe at having to remain indoors: high summer and a cloudless sky outside as the sun warmed the cobblestones of Baker Street and smiled through the opened windows of number 221B.
