NEW! Something Completely Different, An Abridged Version of “The Adventure of the Second Stain”

I have never recorded an abridged version of a Sherlock Holmes mystery short story, not wishing to truncate the words of the great Conan Doyle.  However, it occurred to me that the time of three half-hour sitcoms may be too much for listeners to bear to listen to a Holmes short story.  In order to guard against this pity, I have recorded this abridged version of a humorous yet exciting Holmes short story, abridging it to under two half hour sitcoms in length.  I started out the recording thinking I could do so in twenty minutes.  It can’t be done while still doing justice to the story, to the writing and to the detective or the author. And so here in 47 minutes flat, is the abridged version, hopefully with all its essential glory retained.  –Your narrator, Rick Reiman.
