The Adventure of the Opal Wart
Synopsis
Pilot episode. Around Sinterklaas, someone stole a priceless gem from the hotel suite of the countess of Neutral Moresnet. Flashforward to some two weeks later. Christmas is coming soon, and disaffected ASB-fighting veteran Pieter Molenaarzoon is at a crossroad in his life. When he least expects it, he meets an unusual new friend and both of them begin to form what will become a legendary detective duo. Can our heroes solve the case of the recently stolen Opal Wart in time for Christmas ?
Based on
The episode's storyline is a combination of the crime plot from the Canon's short story The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle (by A. C. Doyle) and elements from the Sherlock episode A Study in Pink (by S. Moffat), itself an adaptation of A Study in Scarlet).
Behind the scenes
TBA.
Reception
This first episode was very well received by its readers ("amazing work, would read again", "a surprisingly very nice read, the final line was genius", etc.). The reception in terms of the number of readers was smaller than in the case of other AH.com comedy series, due to a somewhat smaller exposure before and during the time of the premiere.
