A collection of the most famous cases faced by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's peerless creation

Sherlock Holmes's enigmatic personality and startling deductive skills have made him fiction's most popular detective. From his smoke-filled rooms in Baker Street, Holmes's brooding figure emerges into the streets of Victorian London to grapple with the forces of treachery, intrigue and evil. But without Holmes's devoted amanuensis, Dr Watson, we should know nothing of the great man's successes (or occasional failure).

This collection of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes includes many of the famous cases - and great strokes of brilliance - that made the legendary detective one of fiction's most popular creations. Cases covered in this collection include 'The Speckled Band', in which a terrified woman begs their help in solving the mystery surrounding her sister's death, or 'A Scandal in Bohemia', which portrays a European king blackmailed by his mistress. In 'Silver Blaze' the pair investigate the disappearance of a racehorse and the violent murder of its trainer, while in 'The Final Problem' Holmes at last comes face to face with his nemesis, the diabolical Professor Moriarty, 'the Napoleon of crime', at Reichenbach Falls.
