Summary
"the goodness of Providence." [NAVA] It began with an idea for a series of radio mysteries, each five minutes long, that listeners could solve by considering the evidence. Sherlock Holmes would then give the solution — and to make it even more interesting, Watson could conclude with a moral lesson reflecting the story. Thanks to the author, journalist, and broadcaster Kel Richards , it became a popular feature on Australian radio, and Ray Riethmeier, BSI ("Morrison, Morrison, and Dodd") thought it would make a wonderful book. Through a strange series of circumstances — destiny, perhaps? — Ray eventually found Richards and reunited him with transcripts of the programs. Join us as we talk to Ray about the result: Sherlock Holmes 5-Minute Mysteries , a collection of fifty fair-play puzzlers that also enable personal, Christian exploration. Next, we explore Sherlockian gatherings for the first half of November in "The Learned Societies" segment. Madeline Quinones is back with A Chance of Listening, and the Canonical Couplet quiz tests your Sherlock Holmes knowledge, with something from the vaults for the winner.
