Gullible Mr Smith...

An amusing story about Mr Smith, coffee trader. Sherlock Holmes of course sees through the ploy.

Enjoyable story!

The Coffee Trader’s Dilemma by Derrick Belanger is a very entertaining story. Dr John Watson is recalling one of his adventures with Sherlock Holmes to his wife Mary. It is a story of kidnapping, intrigue and love. The narration by Michael Langan is great. His use of individualized voices for each character are appropriate to the character and story. His performance brings the characters and story to life.

Enjoyable Holmes story

I liked this story very much. Got to see a side of Holmes that is often hidden away. Nice to hear some interaction between Dr. Watson and his beloved wife Mary. Narration was well done.

Clever Story

Interesting story with a clever twist. Excellent performance by Michael Langan. I would definitely recommend.
