  The Field Bazaar is a short story by Arthur Conan Doyle, first published on November 20, 1896 in a special "Bazaar Number" of The Student, a publication of the students' representative council at Edinburgh University. It is a Sherlock Holmes story, published under Conan Doyle's byline and featuring both Holmes and his partner, Dr. John Watson. It is, however, treated by most experts as a parody or pastiche not suitable for inclusion in the traditional 60-story canon of Sherlock Holmes, though there are dissenters.Watson narrates "The Field Bazaar"—which mirrors the reality of Conan Doyle's gift of the story to The Student—from a first-person perspective.The story opens with Holmes and Watson at breakfast in the sitting-room of their residence at 221B Baker Street. Holmes infers from a handful of clues that an envelope Watson is holding contains an invitation to "help in the Edinburgh University Bazaar." He then concludes, to Watson's astonishment, "that the particular help which you have been asked to give was that you should write in their album, and that you have already made up your mind that the present incident will be the subject of your article." Holmes then returns to reading his morning newspaper.

  Jilted lovers, cheating spouses, treacherous business partners . . . All bread and butter that pays the bills for this dysfunctional Investigation team. 
   
   
   
  Unfortunately, the past is catching up with one of them. Vengeance with a capital V is as rare as it is dangerous and doesn't pay. Except that is what both of them want. What choice do they have when a federal agent promises to turn the pair into his personal sock puppets if they don't comply with his game? 
   
   
   
  Going undercover amongst the great and greasy of the city, things move from unprofitable to . . . well complicated. But for a chance at revenge, is any price too high? 
   
   
   
  Pain and Agony are once more caught between scumbags and a son of a bitch. Will their plans work? Hard to tell. But their exit strategy is guaranteed to be gratuitously violent. Occasionally at each other, more often against their enemies. 
   
   
   
  Shenanigans, shameful behavior, and a shower of brass shells should be expected when a "subtle infiltration" is left up to Pain and Agony. 
   
   
   
  But hey, if violence gets the job done and is fun along the way, what should the fed agent complain about? 
   
   
   
  Perhaps he shouldn't have engaged Pain and Agony.
