In the finale of A Study in Drowning, we follow Effy as things get stormy and steamy, an ill-advised nap is taken, Ianto gets a phone call and makes some observations, Effy gets on her knees, we learn a lot about Angharad's author. Also, Effy attends a party, and talks to the dean.

Patrons can join us next week for A Study in Drowning bonus, where we cover the Preston bonus chapter and cast the characters both well and poorly. For the rest of you, join us in 2 weeks for the first episode of Small Gods by Terry Prachett!

We'll be covering 25% of Small Gods for episode 1. The endline of our last covered scene is: '"General Fri'it has other business," said Vorbis. "Most pressing and urgent business. Which only he can attend to."' If ending on the right line sounds stressful, just read to like 30% of the book and expect us not to cover all of what you read. That's fine.

If you listened to this episode the day it came out, there was an audio gaffe from 5:50 to 6:20 in the original cut. It has since been fixed. Sorry bout that.

A storm's truly a brewin' in A Study in Drowning. Preston and Effy find some naughty pictures, talk about their traumas, go on a road trip, commit grand theft clothing, and Effy has a crisis of faith.

(Markus was out of his house when recording this so his audio sounds like he's in a bathroom)

We also announce our next book! Hoooooo boy let's get SMALL

Our swim through the Bottom Hundred continues!

We learn some hard truths about Preston, have a goofy study date in the pub, find some incriminating writing, talk literary analysis, have a terrifying lunch at the pub, find a secret room, and watch internalized misogyny go brrr.

Next week, we release an August bonus episode for our Patrons. In two weeks, we'll be back with chapters 9-13 in A Study in Drowning.
