		The one thing that always bothered me about the original Sherlock Holmes stories is that while Holmes’s partner, Watson (the narrator of the stories), acknowledges a gang of street urchins who assist Holmes in his cases, the Baker Street Irregulars are mentioned only four times in the whole cannon of sixty stories.
		The Baker Street Irregulars, who first helped Sherlock Holmes solve the case in A Study in Scarlett, take the spotlight from Holmes and Watson here and manage to give the famed detective the information he needs to take the credit for recovering stolen jewels and unraveling the mystery at hand.
		Holmes considers the problem, but it’s the Irregulars the reader is drawn to as they circle the scene of the crime, demonstrating the sleuthing abilities we always knew they had.
