  The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

  Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

  The greatest detective who ever lived, brought to life in a whole new way. 
   
  Sherlock Holmes doesn't solve crimes. He reads people, rooms, and situations like most of us read words on a page - and by the time everyone else is still figuring out what happened, he's already three steps ahead. Arthur Conan Doyle introduced the world to Holmes and Watson in this landmark collection of twelve stories, and nearly every mystery writer who came after owes something to what's in these pages. 
   
  The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes has everything that made Holmes a legend. The disguises. The deductions that seem impossible until he explains them. The foggy London streets. Watson fumbling to keep up while somehow always being exactly where he's needed. And cases that range from darkly sinister to quietly heartbreaking - because not every mystery has a happy ending, even when Holmes solves it. 
   
  These aren't just detective stories. They're some of the most entertaining pieces of short fiction ever written, and they hold up completely.

Three years later he published his second collection which contained his macabre classic ‘The Beast with Five fingers’, only one more collection would come from his pen in his lifetime. 
  For many years of his life he now lived in Switzerland with his wife but a yearning to be home saw them come back to England in 1935.
