About the book

Arthur Conan Doyle's The Hound of the Baskervilles is one of the most celebrated Sherlock Holmes mysteries. The story begins after Sir Charles Baskerville is found dead near his ancestral home on Dartmoor, apparently connected to an old family legend concerning a terrifying supernatural hound. When Sir Henry Baskerville arrives to inherit the estate, Holmes and Dr Watson investigate whether the legendary creature is real or whether a human enemy is responsible. With its isolated manor house, dangerous moorland and mysterious nighttime events, the novel combines Gothic atmosphere with Holmes's characteristic logic and deduction.
