The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes, Paperback / softback Book

The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Read the final twelve stories that Arthur Conan Doyle wrote about his brilliant detective.

It is perhaps the most unusual and certainly the darkest collection that he penned.

Treachery, mutilation, and the terrible consequences of infidelity are just some of the themes explored in this collection, along with atmospheric touches of the gothic involving a bloodsucking vampire, crypts at midnight and strange bones in a furnace.

The challenging and often bizarre tales reflect the mood of the 1920's when they were written.

Amid this grey miasma of crime stands the shining figure of Sherlock Holmes who is there to unravel even the most baffling mystery.Arthur Conan Doyle was a British author most noted for his stories about the detective Sherlock Holmes, which are generally considered a major innovation in the field of crime fiction, and for the adventures of Professor Challenger.

He was a prolific writer whose other works include science fiction stories, historical novels, plays and romances, poetry, and non-fiction.
