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.
After killing off the brainy detective in earlier stories, the renowned mystery writer Doyle brings Sherlock Holmes back to life in this collection of stories published in 1903. Using his famed powers of deduction, Holmes solves baffling cases including "the Empty House, "the Six Napoleons", "the Golden Prince-Nez", and more.
