221b_recsTitle: The Old Bad Songs
Author:![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
fengirl88
Pairing: Lestrade/Sherlock, John/Sherlock, Lestrade/Maurice (other character, from EM Forster and the Merchange Ivory film.)
Length: 21000 words. A very long fic but a _really_ good one...
Author's summary: Lestrade becomes enmeshed in a blackmail case he's working, and has to turn to Sherlock for help. The title of the story is a translation of a Schumann song title, Die Alten Bösen Lieder, and will make sense eventually. Individual chapter titles are taken from songs this Lestrade knew in his youth.
Rating: NC 17
Warnings: Angst, UST, and bratty behaviour (mostly from Sherlock)
Verse: Sherlock BBC
Reccer's comments: This fic is _epic_. It was one of the first WIPs to get me hooked in the BBC verse. The scope, the scale, the tension! It has a kick-arse case fic, Lestrade's backstory, a stunning trip through gay history and MAURICE!!! E M Forster's Maurice, known to many from the Merchant Ivory film. He and Lestrade remain my OTP! In short, a dark, tense thriller of a piece. Oh, and don't miss the epilogue...
