A Three-Pipe Problem

Rating:
Summary: A good read but a bit implausible
Review: This isn't a book in which Sherlock Holmes appears, rather it is set in the 1970's and the main character is a TV actor that plays Holmes.

Although I quite enjoyed this book there is one glaring oversight that the author makes (I will mention it here because it won't give away who the guilty party is) - at the end of the book the crook is killed and "Holmes" is knocked unconscious. Only these two people knew who the crook was, yet when "Holmes" comes to he is hailed as a hero and everybody now knows the full story. Who told them?
