The fic is set a little before our time, I think, and is about John and Sherlock meeting in america in the country. I remember reading a fic rec where it was said "This absolutely should not work. Yet it does" :D

John was living not far from a little house where Mrs. Hudson lived, and further up the hill was Sherlocks big spooky house. Mrs. Hudson sometimes cooked for him or did his laundry.
There was a scene where Mrs. Hudson implored John to go the the dance in town, if not she would know about it, to socialize and that´s where John met Sherlock.
It was also a case fic with some pretty interesting turns, also featuring Professor Moriarty XD
Anyone has ideas?

Summary:

Appalachian AU! In November 1973, Vietnam vet John Watson returns to his family's old home in Arthel County, West Virginia, deep in coal country. His low expectations include recuperation and boredom. Instead he finds a ruined landscape, a series of grisly murders, and one of the world's weirdest neighbors.


Warnings/content: Some violence. Explicit sex. Tobacco-chewing. (Not all at the same time.)
