The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes
Raamatust
♂ In his final cases, the world's greatest detective meets his darkest mysteries.
The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes gathers the last twelve stories of the legendary detective Sherlock Holmes, as penned by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. First published in 1927, these tales showcase a more mature and sometimes melancholic Holmes, reflecting both his enduring genius and the changing world around him.
From the disturbing «The Adventure of the Creeping Man» to the chilling «The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire,» these stories reveal Holmes at his most introspective, bold, and unconventional. Accompanied as always by Dr. Watson, Holmes faces poisoners, blackmailers, vampires, secret societies—and moral dilemmas that challenge even his logic.
