Summary

In the more than 100 years since Doyle created the immortal Sherlock Holmes and his assistant, Dr. Watson, no other mystery writer has come close to eclipsing him as the standard bearer in crime fiction. A brilliant London-based "consulting detective," Holmes is famous for his intellectual prowess and is renowned for his skillful use of astute observation, deductive reasoning, and inference to solve difficult cases. Holmes is at the height of his powers here in this collection of 12 of his most famous cases, including "The Red-Headed League" and "The Adventure of the Speckled Band."

Great fun

I got this book on a freebie and even though I have heard the stories before it is always good to here them again and narrated by someone else.
