"To Sherlock Holmes she is always the woman." The book opens on a confession of defeat, and then the door of 221B Baker Street swings wide onto a London of fog and gaslight, where trouble climbs the seventeen steps to the sitting room. A pawnbroker is paid to copy out the encyclopaedia because his hair is red.

To Sherlock Holmes she is always THE woman. I have seldom heard him mention her under any other name.
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Arthur Conan Doyle
