Canon Story: His Last Bow
Title: How better?
Author:godsdaisiechain
Rating: G

Uncle Sherlock raised bees, who had only one female, just as his world had only The Woman—an innocent occupation for an older man in any event. Mycroft Junior laughed quietly to himself from within the recesses of a leather chair that had once belonged to his father.

How brilliantly simple. How better to smuggle intelligence than in beeswax candles?

Uncle Sherlock raised bees, who had only one female, just as his world had only The Woman... I love that parallel! ^^

Thanks... possibly explains why no Sherlock Junior for Mycroft Junior to play with.
