What to expect
Motivated by greed and jealousy, the criminal in this classic Sherlock Holmes mystery The Adventure of the Priory School aims to kidnap a young lord—but causes a far greater tragedy.
Critics Review
“Edward Hardwicke reads British accents and brogue with enterprising style…His rendition of the stricken schoolmaster in Adventures of Priory School rings with clipped, academic tones…An excellent listen for Sherlock Holmes fans.”
“Sherlock Holmes stories…are not
only the most famous and enduring contribution to detective fiction by any
single writer but also probably the most imitated, parodied, and adapted
literary works in the language…The detective has since become a staple of the
film and television industries.”
“[Sherlock Holmes] became the
prototype for the modern mastermind detective. The character generated the most
enduring tradition in detective fiction.”
