The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes
by Arthur Conan Doyle
Read the last twelve stories Arthur Conan Doyle wrote about his brilliant detective story. This is perhaps the most unusual and certainly the darkest collection he has written. The terrible consequences of betrayal, mutilation, and infidelity are just a few of the topics explored in this collection, along with atmospheric gothic beats involving a bloodsucking vampire, midnight crypts, and strange bones in the oven. The complex and often bizarre tales reflect the mood of the 1920s when they were written. In the midst of this gray criminal miazm stands the glittering figure of Sherlock Holmes, who is there to solve even the most complex mystery.
