"Holmes this is Miss Sally Granger, Miss Granger I think you know that this is Mr. Sherlock Holmes," Watson said gently to Holmes so not to cause him any distress.

"Miss Granger what is your relation to Colonel James Moriarty?" Holmes asked, his eyes closed and his posture relaxed. She sighed and took off her locket.
