  "The Naval Treaty", one of the 56 Sherlock Holmes short stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is one of 12 stories in the cycle collected as The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes. Doyle ranked "The Adventure of the Naval Treaty" 19th in a list of his 19 favourite Sherlock Holmes stories.
  Dr. Watson receives a letter, which he then refers to Holmes, from an old schoolmate, now a Foreign Office employee from Woking who has had an important naval treaty stolen from his office. It disappeared while Mr. Percy Phelps had stepped out of his office momentarily late in the evening to see about some coffee that he had ordered. His office has two entrances, each joined by a stairway to a single landing. The commissionaire kept watch at the main entrance. There was no-one watching at the side entrance. Phelps also knew that his fiancée's brother was in town and that he might drop by. Phelps was alone in the office.

  Before The Porcelain Menagerie, Jillian Forsberg introduced listeners to a world of wonder, obsession, and fragile beauty in The Rhino Keeper—a 2025 Kansas Notable Book—brought vividly to life by narrator Caroline Hewitt. 
  Inspired by the true story of a Dutch sea captain who toured 18th-century Europe with an Indian rhinoceros named Clara, this richly layered novel moves between past and present. As Captain Douwemout van der Meer and Clara enchant Europe’s courts and crowds, admiration turns to danger, and devotion to sacrifice. Among those captivated is a young artist, Johann Joachim Kändler, whose porcelain masterpiece will echo through Forsberg’s companion novel, The Porcelain Menagerie. 
  With Hewitt’s evocative performance guiding the journey, The Rhino Keeper transports listeners across centuries—where art, ambition, and compassion collide. Continue the story in The Porcelain Menagerie, also from History Through Fiction.

  A teenager is dragged by her beloved aunt to Weight Watchers and spirals toward harmful eating habits. Meanwhile, her dad is struggling with complications from diabetes, and her mom is escaping into the arms of someone unexpected. Hungry is a short story from Halle Hill’s Good Women, which delves into the lives of twelve Black women across the Appalachian South.
