The Return of Sherlock Holmes

Arthur Conan Doyle

Synopsis

"I moved my head, and there at my elbow stood a tall, thin man, his face gaunt and ascetic... 'Holmes!' I cried. 'Is it really you?'"

Three years after his apparent death at the Reichenbach Falls, Sherlock Holmes miraculously reappears in London. To a stunned Dr. Watson, he reveals the truth of his survival and his secret travels through Tibet and Persia. But there is no time for sentiment; a deadly marksman—the last vestige of Moriarty's gang—is waiting in the shadows of Baker Street with an air-gun, and only Holmes can spring the trap.

The Return of the Master: This collection marks the triumphant comeback of the detective who refused to stay dead. The Return of Sherlock Holmes features thirteen of his most ingenious cases. Solve the high-stakes code of The Adventure of the Dancing Men, track the bicycle tracks in The Adventure of the Priory School, and witness the dark justice meted out to the "King of Blackmailers" in The Adventure of Charles Augustus Milverton.

Evolution of a Partnership: The bond between Holmes and Watson is deeper than ever in these stories. As they navigate the shifting landscape of Edwardian London, they encounter everything from stolen international treaties to kidnapped aristocrats. This volume proves that Holmes's powers of observation and deduction were not dimmed by his absence; rather, they were sharpened into a more formidable weapon against the forces of crime.

The game is afoot once more. Purchase "The Return of Sherlock Holmes" today and experience the most famous comeback in literary history.

Children of the Ghetto

Israel Zangwill

In its first appearance in 1892, Israel Zangwill's Children of the Ghetto created a sensation in both England and America, becoming the first Anglo-Jewish bestseller and establishing Zangwill as the literary voice of Anglo-Jewry. A novel set in late nineteenth-century London, Children of the Ghetto gave an inside look into an immigrant community that was almost as mysterious to the more established middle-class Jews of Britain as to the non-Jewish population, providing a compelling analysis of a generation caught between the ghetto and modern British life.

Big Two-Hearted River - The...

Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway’s landmark short story of a veteran’s solo fishing trip in Michigan’s rugged Upper Peninsula, featuring a revelatory foreword by John N. Maclean. 
“A century since its publication in the collection In Our Time, “Big Two-Hearted River” has helped shape language and literature in America and across the globe, and its magnetic pull continues to draw readers, writers, and critics. The story is the best early example of Ernest Hemingway’s now-familiar writing style: short sentences, punchy nouns and verbs, few adjectives and adverbs, and a seductive cadence. Easy to imitate, difficult to match. The subject matter of the story has inspired generations of writers to believe that fly fishing can be literature. More than any of his stories, it depends on his ‘iceberg theory’ of literature, the notion that leaving essential parts of a story unsaid, the underwater portion of the iceberg, adds to its power. Taken in context with his other work, it marks Hemingway’s passage from boyish writer to accomplished author: nothing big came before it, novels and stories poured out after it.” —from the foreword by John N. Maclean
