Featuring a new Introduction by the author of The Last Apprentice series, this collection gathers some of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson's most extraordinary cases.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was born in Edinburgh where he qualified as a doctor, but it was his writing which brought him fame, with the creation of Sherlock Holmes, the first scientific detective. He was also a convert to spiritualism and a social reformer who used his investigative skills to prove the innocence of individuals.
