Holmes and Watson return in this atmospheric crime novel, featuring the wild Devonshire moors, a phantom hound, and a centuries-old familial curse.
Investigating the sudden death of Sir Charles Baskerville, Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson must rely on their rationality to solve what appears to be a case of supernatural interference. Distracted by another case, Holmes sends Watson alone to Dartmoor to protect the Baskerville heir from the same ghastly fate as Sir Charles. But the complex mystery only seems to get more confusing as Watson investigates…
Arguably the best of the four Sherlock Holmes novels, Arthur Conan Doyle’s horror masterpiece was first published in The Strand Magazine between August 1901 and April 1902. This edition features a specially commissioned introduction alongside an article by Arthur Conan Doyle and an essay on the history of detective fiction by S.S. Van Dine.
“This adventure of the great detective, whose reappearance has so long been hoped for, will be found equal, if not superior, in vivid and thrilling interest, to the best of those which first made his name celebrated all over the world.” – The Graphic, 1901
“Of a score of reasons why you should read A. Conan Doyle’s latest and best work, we will mention three:
“It combines the qualities of a good melodrama with those of a skilful puzzle. It is wholesomely exciting, and it sharpens the wits of him who reads… Mr. Conan Doyle has seldom done better.” – The Westminster Gazette, 1902
“The grimmest and strongest book of the year. Cannot be recommended to any reader who is not prepared to forget himself and his business until the mystery of the Hound is solved.” – Pall Mall Gazette, 1902
