The Case of the Lost Pearl Earring by Mira (General Audiences)
Hi there, I'm excited to be taking the 
crack_van for my first spin this month in the Sherlock fandom. I tend to rec short to novella length fics, beyond that expect a mixed bag of treats with a spotlight on my Holmes favourites: casefic and crossovers.
Fandom: SHERLOCK BBC
Pairing: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson
Length: 5,490 words
Author on LJ: Mirabile Dictu
Author Website: Mira on AO3
Summary: Tea, milk, and bullets.
Excerpt: "I'm afraid there's been a mistake," John said before Sherlock could erupt. "We really are Sherlock and John, not Joan ..."
Why this must be read: The author has fun with genderswap and casefic tropes, setting John and Sherlock off on the mystery of their suspected female imposters. En route, they met some intriguing original characters, contemplate gender over pastries and have a bonus visit from Irene Adler. Anymore would risk spoiling it, but overall the author does a good job of delivering suspense, action and charming character interplay into a fairly quick, well paced read.
