"Holborn" Probes the Shadow Self in 'Get Millie Black's Third Episode

The narration baton is handed to Holborn for Get Millie Black’s third installment* in what is now clearly a pattern. Holborn tells us he grew up with nothing and remarks how that upbringing makes you hungry for everything you don’t have. Now, he is accomplished professionally and personally: respected at work, with a loving wife and young daughter. He has everything – but wants more. In the same breath as mentioning the prestige of taking the Somerville case, he speaks almost reverently about meeting Millie.

(*Will every episode have a new voice? Each installment has been named after its narrator, so time will tell.)

Following the Somerville massacre, Millie reports to Barracat about the photos of Romeo on Leddick Somerville’s phone. Holborn suggests he and Millie partner up to seek out Freddie, who offered evidence on his family’s money laundering for the Sanguis Meridian crime syndicate. Meanwhile, Millie’s former partner gets back to her and reports there’s no dirt on Holborn.
