sherlock60Title: The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax: Aftereffect
Author: gardnerhill
Word Count: 60
Rating: G
Warning: None.
Summary: Some cases are etched indelibly into the mind.
***
Our work remains with us in different ways. Holmes dreams of orange pips rolling in his hand, or snakes dropping onto him; I face a red-eyed giant hound or watch, helpless, as Holmes and Moriarty topple into the abyss.
But one night after the Carfax case we both awoke, gasping for air and clawing at the lids of invisible coffins.
