शेरलॉक होम्स आणि सर आर्थर कॉनन डायल यात अभेदच आहे. होम्सचे असामान्य प्रज्ञाशील व्यक्तिमत्त्व, आपल्या तर्काच्या आधारे अत्यंत जटिल व गुंतागुंतीच्या रहस्याचा-गुन्ह्याचा बुद्धिगम्य आणि नेमका वेध घेते. अचूक निरीक्षण शक्ती, मोठ्या गंभीरतेने व अतिशय हळूवारपणे उलगडत जाणारे रहस्य वाचकांच्या मनाचा विलक्षण कब्जा घेते. कन्सल्टिंग डिटेक्टिव्ह म्हणून शेरलॉक होम्सचे नाव आज रहस्थकथांच्या जगतात अजरामर आहे. वाचकांच्या मनावरील या रहस्यकथांची मोहिनी अद्यापही मावळलेली नाही.

'We must fall back upon the old axiom that when all other contingencies fail, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.'Sherlock Holmes's fearless chronicler Dr Watson once again opens his notebooks to bring to light eight further tales of some of the strangest and most fascinating cases to come before the enquiring mind of London's most famous detective.These mysteries involve the disappearance of secret plans as well as of a lady of noble standing; the curious circumstances of Wisteria Lodge and of the Devil's Foot; as well as the story His Last Bow, the last outing of Holmes and Watson on the eve of the First World War.

This is just a wonderful , to me, walk down memory lane, re-living and re-experiencing some of the most iconic Holmes stories ever written by "Sir Arth".This book contains such gems as "The Musgrave Ritual", "Silver Blaze", "The Resident Patient", "The (fabulous) Greek Interpreter" - πολι καλά and of course the amazing, emotional, fatal "The Final Problem".The Final Problem, what can one say, I almost had tears in my eyes as (view spoiler)[ the letter arrives for Watson to return to the Hotel, I'm shouting at the book, "its fake, don't leave Sherlock on his own, its a trap."  , but as ever, he rushes back and we all know the consequences.  (hide spoiler)]

'Holmes,' I cried. 'Is it really you? Can it indeed be that you are alive? Is it possible that you succeeded in climbing out of that awful abyss?'Missing, presumed dead, for three years, Sherlock Holmes returns triumphantly to his dear companion Dr Watson. And not before time! London has never been in more need of his extraordinary services: a murderous individual with an air gun stalks the city.Among thirteen further brilliant tales of mystery, detection and deduction, Sherlock Holmes investigates the problem of the Norwood Builder, deciphers the message of the Dancing Men, and cracks the case of the Six Napoleons.

As a dense yellow fog swirls through the streets of London, a deep melancholy has descended on Sherlock Holmes, who sits in a cocaine-induced haze at 221B Baker Street. His mood is only lifted by a visit from a beautiful but distressed young woman - Mary Morstan, whose father vanished ten years before. Four years later she began to receive an exquisite gift every year: a large, lustrous pearl. Now she has had an intriguing invitation to meet her unknown benefactor and urges Holmes and Watson to accompany her. And in the ensuing investigation - which involves a wronged woman, a stolen hoard of Indian treasure, a wooden-legged ruffian, a helpful dog and a love affair - even the jaded Holmes is moved to exclaim, 'Isn't it gorgeous!'--back cover

In "A Study in Scarlet" Sherlock Holmes investigates a murder at Lauriston Gardens as Dr. Watson tags along with Holmes while narratively detailing his amazing deductive abilities.
