Summary
This is a group of interlinked short stories (most between 2000 and 7000 words) which tell the story of how Holmes and Watson really came to be separated at the Reichenbach Falls, and how they found each other again. Each story is in the form of a document--a letter, a journal, a surveillance report, an affidavit, etc.--which is linked to one or more ACD canon tales, and which tells us something about that story that was changed or suppressed in Watson's published account of it. Holmes/Watson, with glimpses of other relationships. Only one story ("The Boy in the Boat," which is f/f) is rated M. Everything else is T.
ACD canon stories that inspired "Missing Pages" include: The Hound of the Baskervilles, The Sign of Four, "The Final Problem," "The Empty House," "The Naval Treaty," "A Case of Identity," "The Greek Interpreter," "The Gloria Scott," "The Noble Bachelor," "The Copper Beeches," "The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax," "The Devil's Foot," "The Illustrious Client."
Many stories work as stand-alones. If you want the whole arc, just read them in the order in which they are posted. Either way you slice it, I hope you enjoy!

Bookmark Notes:
A favorite epistolary series and a fav Holmes series all in one. Lots that I love about this one, mainly the community that forms between Holmes' clients and loved ones that solve their own mysteries (Mary Morstan's co-founded Society for Ladies) and put their all into helping Holmes and Watson in their time of need. There's also guest foreshadowings from future clients like Kitty! So many scenes and characters that are very memorable. Namely, Sophia Kratides (I support women's wrongs when it's as justified as this), Lady Frances (she is not just a victim and surprises Holmes), and Percy Phelps (who says fuck you to toxic masculinity).
