Description

Sherlock Holmes is a collection of eight stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. These stories bring together some of the most famous amateur detective of all time in a series of intriguing cases. In 'The Speckled Band', a Victorian melodrama unfolds in a country house, complete with a murderous villain and a very unpleasant snake. Other tales include 'Silver Blaze', which reveals a surprising truth behind a missing race horse on Dartmoor; 'The Redheaded League', where an advertisement leads to a bizarre encounter with the Encyclopedia Britannica; and 'The Bruce Partington Plans', in which Holmes uses his skills to uncover stolen state secrets in the run-up to World War I. Originally illustrated by Sidney Paget, these stories have helped form the enduring image of Sherlock Holmes.
