Immerse yourself in the first two adventures of Sherlock Holmes with this renewed edition that preserves all the intrigue and acid humor of the original editions. Accompany Dr. Watson on his return to London and discover how his life changes when sharing an apartment with detective Sherlock Holmes. From solving a case in a Mormon community in 'A Study in Scarlet' to investigating a complex oath of honor in 'The Sign of Four', these stories will take you from the darkest places in London to the United States. Discover Holmes' pragmatism and sufficiency, as well as the virtues that make Watson, and us with him, feel attached to the detective. This edition includes a prologue by Alberto Laiseca that infects his passion for the character and transmits the vertigo of his adventures.
Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle was a British writer and physician. He is best known for his four novels and fifty-six short stories about the fictional consulting detective Sherlock Holmes and his assistant Dr. Watson, which are milestones in crime fiction, and for his first work featuring Professor Challenger, The Lost World (1912), which gave its name to a subgenre of speculative fiction. He was a prolific writer who produced over 200 stories and articles, four volumes of poetry, and a number of works for the stage. He was knighted by King Edward VII in the 1902 Coronation Honours.
