The Case of the Careless Suffragette
Prismark1020 October 2021
Warning: Spoilers
An Earl who is against votes for women becomes a casualty of the suffragette movement.

The Earl dies by a bomb shaped like a ball. The bomb was to damage a statue of a lion and was meant to raise awareness for the women's cause.

The suffragette and the anarchist who supplied the mob are arrested by Inspector Lestrade.

Sherlock Holmes is a believer in female emancipation. He also believes that the dead Earl was a target not because of his opposition to women having the vote. It was inheritance that was the main motive.

Very much a comedic episode and at one point I wondered if there was going to be a mystery. When it does turn out to be murder, only Sherlock could solve it as he is the only one who has the clues.
