Travelling back to [[Bernice Summerfield's spaceship|her spaceship]] using [[Bernice Summerfield's Time Ring|her Time Ring]], [[Bernice Summerfield|Benny]] unexpectedly finds herself in [[Regent's Park Zoo]] in [[1893]] with her Time Ring no longer functioning and lies her way into the [[Diogenes Club]] to employ [[Mycroft Holmes]]'s help, [[Sherlock Holmes|Sherlock]] supposedly having died at the [[Reichenbach Falls]] and [[John Watson|Watson]] on holiday with his wife, [[Mary Watson (The Adventure of the Diogenes Damsel)|Mary]]. He knows of her as he has read the unpublished copy of Watson's ''[[The All-Consuming Fire]]'' and deduces her identity based on her manner of speaking, her strange [[clothes]], vocabulary and attitude and her mention of [[Menaxus]], so he agrees to help her and lets her stay at his home. | Travelling back to [[Bernice Summerfield's spaceship|her spaceship]] using [[Bernice Summerfield's Time Ring|her Time Ring]], [[Bernice Summerfield|Benny]] unexpectedly finds herself in [[Regent's Park Zoo]] in [[1893]] with her Time Ring no longer functioning and lies her way into the [[Diogenes Club]] to employ [[Mycroft Holmes]]'s help, [[Sherlock Holmes|Sherlock]] supposedly having died at the [[Reichenbach Falls]] and [[John Watson|Watson]] on holiday with his wife, [[Mary Watson (The Adventure of the Diogenes Damsel)|Mary]].

Benny decides to attract the attention of [[Time Lord|those who monitor time]] by changing it and, in the meantime, accompanies Mycroft to the [[mortuary]], learning that there has been a series of [[murder]]s all involving the number [[7 (number)|7]] but otherwise apparently unconnected. Having previously thought that he might be inventing a pattern where there was not one, he has now received a [[visiting card]] containing only the word "seven" written in different [[language]]s and in both [[Arabic numeral|Arabic]] and [[Roman numeral]]s. Benny recognises the [[corpse]] as that of [[zookeeper (The Adventure of the Diogenes Damsel)|the zookeeper]] at [[Regent's Park]]. | Benny decides to attract the attention of [[Time Lord|those who monitor time]] by changing it and, in the meantime, accompanies Mycroft to the [[mortuary]], learning that there has been a series of [[murder]]s all involving the number [[7 (number)|7]] but otherwise apparently unconnected.
