Summary
‘Down the Strand the lamps were but misty splotches of diffused light which threw a feeble circular glimmer upon the slimy pavement’.
Whilst the seamy streets of London drown in a sea of smog, Sherlock Holmes sinks into a cocaine-induced melancholy, until Miss Mary Morstan presents him with a most intriguing case. A terrible death, an unknown benefactor, stolen treasure, and a secret pact between criminals stretching back to a mutiny-torn India, lead Holmes into an epic pursuit of the truth.

Critics Review
He is unique in simultaneously bringing down the curtain on an era and raising one on another, ushering in a genre of writing that… has never been surpassed. His own life, as footballer… eye surgeon, champion of injustice and investigator into the paranormal, is the stuff of legend. Personally, I would walk a mile in tight boots to read his letters to the milkman * Stephen Fry, The Arthur Conan Doyle Collection *
