THE ADVENTURE OF THE MISSING BETTER HALF. Did you ever wonder what happened to Godfrey Staunton, the missing Three-Quarter, after Holmes tracked him down and found him, racked with sobs and bitter grief, beside his beloved deceased wife? This story tells you. His life got much better. He met an exceptional young woman, Millicent Brocklehurst, and fell in love, and got married. He was chosen to play on England's National Team in the 1899 Home Nations Championship games. Life was good. ... and then it got much worse. Bribery, beating, murder and more.
