“Male costume is nothing new to me” [SCAN]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;  &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; It isn't every day you run into someone who crashed an invitation-only event 45 years ago. When you add to the mix that the event was all-male and the interloper was a female—well, now we have the beginning of a good story. &nbsp; For years it remained a mystery, which is just fine with&nbsp;Rosemary Herbert, our guest for this episode and the very same person who pulled off the caper. It's the perfect genre, as Rosemary has been involved in the world of mystery fiction for nearly her entire life. &nbsp; Her literary connections are broad and deep (as links below to books she's edited and written will attest), and she has cultivated connections in the world of Sherlock Holmes that span from&nbsp;Julian Symons&nbsp;to Dan Posnansky, BSI and more. Join us as we delve into this fascinating world with Rosemary.  &nbsp; We're pleased to have Mattias Boström with us again for another "As We Go to Press." But we need to take a one-episode hiatus from the&nbsp;Canonical Couplet&nbsp;quiz—which means you have an extra two weeks to listen to&nbsp;Episode 172&nbsp;and give that a shot for a prize. &nbsp; &nbsp; Information on sponsors, links, and notes available below.   &nbsp;      &nbsp;              &nbsp;     Please do consider becoming a&nbsp;Patron of the Arts.
