It’s all over the papers today, but it’s still creepy enough to warrant a posting. Lancelyn Green, Sherlock Holmes sleuth, may have succumbed to the Conan Doyle curse. He was found in his home garrotted by a shoelace, surrounded by “gin and cuddly toys”. The man apparently thought someone in the Sherlock Holmes Society had it in for him, though opinions differ as to whether this was paranoia, delusion or (given the garrotting) the plain truth.
