Four demanding, even life-threatening, adventures for the much-loved amateur detective, who, with the faithful Watson by his side, has earned his place in our national life and social history.
This collection of short stories, taken from The Case Book of Sherlock Holmes, sees Baker Street’s most famous resident investigating a mysterious maritime murder, a tragic crime of passion, a surprising elopement and the unexpected windfall promised to a reclusive collector.
Contains:
The Adventure of the Lion’s Mane
The Adventure of the Three Garridebs
The Problem of Thor Bridge
The Adventure of the Retired Colourman
Critics Review
“Christopher Lee is a worthy inheritor of the deerstalker headwear and S-bend pipe. His tones are august and measured and he can break off to do the character voices nicely.”
