Redden, having been taken apart in book

Yes, but how did this clue lead you to A Study In Scarlet, pinxit?


...if that it was you are referring to.

'Take apart the word Redden...

Den = Study

Red = Scarlet

Book = A Study In Scarlet

That's all very by the by, but some of us are out there working for a living while you gentlemen are sat in your smoking jackets puffing up the chimney-piece and solving crossword puzzles.

It's hard slog and routine that gets results on the Force, not your fancy theories.

Well, of course, Mr Holmes, we could all get these results if we was able to follow your methods, but some of us has to abide by correct procedure and warrants and all.

I'm not denying that you have been of service to us once or twice in the past, I'm only saying we can't all take your short cuts, that's all.
