The Dog In The Night Time

 

 

I love Sherlock Holmes stories, they are full of wonderful knowledge and insight.

Just the other day I was watching the dramatisation of Silver Blaze and I was incredibly shocked at the mid point to hear Sherlock announce the following words to Watson:

"The curious incident of the dog in the night time."

"What!" I shouted and stood up, that stupid kids book? Why have they nicked Sherlock's words?

A quick search on the internet revealed it is the story of a boy with Aspergers trying to find the killer of his pet dog, weird that there does not seem to be any link other than the detecting angle.

Well Carlos, my education continues along the path you laid before me, i'm off to buy that book and see what it has to offer me, and what you are trying to point out to me.
