Sherlock Holmes: 3 Tales of Intrigue » (Unabridged, 3 CDs)

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was both a doctor and a believer in spirits, which may partly explain why his Sherlock Holmes is one of literature's most beloved detectives: Holmes always approaches his cases with the gentility and logic of a scientist, but the stories are suffused with an aura of the supernatural. Narrated by devoted assistant Dr. John H. Watson, Holmes's adventures were so addictive that fans protested the master deducer's "death" in 1893 and Doyle had to resurrect him.

Sherlock Holmes, the most famous of all fictional detectives, and his assistant, Dr. Watson, are the heroes of these three well-plotted tales. They reveal a long-hidden treachery, solve the betrayal and murder of a foreign heiress, and foil the frame-up of an innocent man in the cases of "The Crooked Man," "The Greek Interpreter," and "The Naval Treaty."
