Canon Story: A Scandal in Bohemia
Title: The motives of women are so inscrutable
Author: Mary Sutherland
Rating: PG-13
"The motives of women are so inscrutable" -- Sherlock Holmes in The Second Stain
A woman may be clever: that does not make her behaviour logical. I attended Irene Adler's wedding incognito; I deduced the location of the hidden panel at Briony Lodge. Admittedly, once she suspected her mistake, the woman thwarted me most effectively. But I still cannot understand how Irene Adler could love both Mr Godfrey Norton and the King of Bohemia.
Note: Several friends of mine have always reckoned that there's more to this case than meets the eye. I gave one possible solution to Irene Adler's behaviour in my ACD/BBC crossover story The Eternal Woman.
