About the book

Arthur Conan Doyle's The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes brings together twelve classic cases featuring the brilliant consulting detective Sherlock Holmes and his loyal friend and chronicler, Dr John Watson. Working from 221B Baker Street, Holmes uses observation, deduction and an extraordinary knowledge of human behaviour to investigate mysteries that have baffled everyone else. The collection includes some of Holmes's most famous cases, involving blackmail, mysterious deaths, stolen property, secret identities and ingenious criminal schemes. It also introduces memorable figures such as Irene Adler, whose intelligence makes a lasting impression on Holmes. Cleverly constructed and highly entertaining, these stories helped establish the modern detective story.
