	Andrew Lownie Literary Agency :: The Adventures of Inspector Lestrade
		It is 1891 and London is still reeling from the horror of the unsolved Ripper murders when Inspector Lestrade (that'ferret-like' anti-hero so often out-detected by the legendary Sherlock Holmes) is sent to the Isle of Wight to investigate a strange corpse found walled up in Shanklin Chine.
		Even when Lestrade pieces together the extraordinary pattern behind the crimes from the anonymous poems sent after each murder, he is no closer to knowing the identity of the sinister, self-styled 'Agrippa', the 'great, long, red-legg'd scissor-man'.
		It becomes a very personal battle and Lestrade's desperate race to avert the next death in the sequence takes him all over the country, from London to the Pennines and back, resulting in a portfolio of suspects which covers the entire range of late-Victorian society.

	Review of The Adventures of Inspector Lestrade, by M.J. Trow
		The atmosphere is one of farce, through which Inspector Lestrade (Why "Sholto", Mr.Trow, when his initial is “G.”?) moves relatively undisturbed, the straight man to a collection of fl and white comedians.
		I was continually reminded of Michael Bond’s ex-Inspector Pamplemousse, a human Paddington Bear in his generation of disasters major and minor.
		But in the classic villain-detective confrontation in the last chapter, we discover that the first murder - the reason for Lestrade's involvement - is totally unconnected with the others.

		For those who don't know, Inspector Lestrade was a Scotland Yard plod ("the professionals" as Watson called them) who frequently crossed paths with Holmes and Watson while they were on criminal cases.
		Lestrade represents the Establishment....complete with all of its rules and regulations, attention to duty and Victorian properness.
		So, I'm reading "The Adventure of the Cardboard Box" and come across this description of Lestrade: "A shower of rain fell while we were in the train, and the heat was far less oppressive in Croydon than in town.

		Lestrade left her cruiser in the care of the droid who served as parking valet, then turned to Holmes as, with a courtly gesture, he offered her his arm.
		Lestrade vaguely heard Holmes give a genteel reply, but she couldn’t quite make it out, because she was doubled over with laughter—or at least, bent as far as the corset would allow.
		Lestrade pushed Rizzo’s chubby hand from her shoulder, preparing to unleash her full fury on him—but she was stopped by Holmes, who gave her elbow a light and discreet touch as he deftly stepped halfway between her and Rizzo.

		Or was Lestrade on the case as a private capacity, causing Holmes to feel that the Scotland Yarder was impinging on his unofficial consulting detective's territory?
		He described the murderer for Lestrade, and perhaps if Lestrade had demonstrated a proper interest, Holmes might have invited him back to the Hereford Arms for a talk with John Turner.
		However, given Holmes's subtle and accurate perceptions of human nature, were his hints to Lestrade a genuine effort at fair play, or was Holmes well aware that Lestrade would not pay any attention to him at this point, after all the guff he had given him on the case already?
