Title: An Avalance of Detour Signs
Author: gyzym
Pairing: Molly Hooper/DI Lestrade, [Molly Hooper/Jim Moriarty]
Length: 56,053
Rating: Mature
Warnings: None
Verse: BBC Sherlock
Author's summary: "In which Molly Hooper gets a job, gets a degree, breaks a heart, has her heart broken, falls in love, keeps a secret, saves a life, runs a morgue, falls apart, pulls it together, and finds exactly what she didn't know she was looking for--not necessarily in that order."
Reccer's comments: Anything written by gyzym is guaranteed to be absolutely astounding, and this is no exception.  It's the story of Molly Hooper's adult life and the biggest secret she ever kept.  She's a fully-fleshed character, real and brave and human, and every note is pitch-perfect.

YES! Love this. Absolutely amazing. (In fact, it's the first Sherlock (BBC) fic I read.) I love that Molly is an Actual Character/Person with a backstory and all that, and I love the slow build between her and Lestrade.
