Book description
Dr Watson once again opens his portfolio to reveal eight strange cases solved by the keen intellect of the master detective. They range from murdering and kidnapping to theft and treachery – though on one occasion it is Holmes and Watson who commit the crime of burglery.
The friends of Mr. Sherlock Holmes will be glad to learn that he is still alive and well, though somewhat crippled by occasional attacks of rheumatism. He has, for many years, lived in a small farm upon the downs five miles from Eastbourne, where his time is divided between philosophy and agriculture.
