Sinopse

Bellamy slid off the high stool, walked unsteadily to the window and stood swaying on his heels looking down at the snow, on Conduit Street. The bar-tender mixed himself a whisky and soda and began to polish the chromium counter. Bellamy turned, and leaned against the window, looking at the bar-tender.He was tall, slim and dark. He looked immaculate although his quiet grey suit was old. There were circles under his eyes. He looked very tired, slightly depraved. His big brown eyes were dull.He said in a low, rather hoarse and attractive voice: “Why doesn’t anybody come in here? Has Mr. March been in, Sydney?”He began to walk towards the bar.

    A demonic curse, an isolated manor, and a legendary detective racing against time to stop a supernatural killer. 
    When Sir Charles Baskerville is found dead on the grounds of his country estate, his face twisted in absolute terror, the locals whisper of a centuries-old family curse. The legend speaks of a phantom beast—a monstrous, glowing hound that stalks the misty depths of Dartmoor, dealing doom to the Baskerville bloodline. With the young and wealthy Sir Henry returning from America to claim his inheritance, the stage is set for another tragic murder. Enter Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson. Leaving the cobblestone streets of London for the treacherous, bog-filled moors of Devonshire, the iconic duo must separate superstition from a deadly, calculated conspiracy before the hell-hound claims its next victim. 
    Why you will love this: A masterpiece of Mystery / Detective Fiction, this audiobook brilliantly merges the grim atmosphere of a gothic horror thriller with the intellectual satisfaction of a classic whodunit. Listeners will be enthralled by Conan Doyle's signature tropes: the sharp logical deductions of Holmes, atmospheric tension, red herrings, and a deeply sinister setting that feels alive. 
    Historical Note: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle fundamentally shaped modern crime literature. His creation of Sherlock Holmes established the archetypes of brilliant sleuths and loyal companions that continue to dominate fiction today.
