Day 12: Icicle: Jeeves & the Snow Threat: Gen
Title: Jeeves & the Snow Threat
Fandom: Jeeves & Wooster
Characters: Bertie Wooster, Jeeves
Rating: Gen
Prompt: Icicle
Summary: Bertie plays sleuth when Lord Cod-Bottom is found murdered.
“…as I always say, Jeeves, ‘Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth’—
“You say that, sir?”
“And one or two other brainy coves, but as I was saying, though improbable, I’ve examined the body and deduced how Lord Cod-Bottom died: an icicle dagger. We’ve a fatal wound but no murder weapon. It must’ve melted.”
“And the murderer, sir?”
“Who would wield an icicle dagger best?”
“An abominable snowman!”
“No, Jeeves, I think that’s a bit impossible—”
“Only highly improbable, sir. Look!”
“By Jove, Jeeves! The code of the Woosters says: RUN!”
