The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes Paperback

Twelve short cases, from a blackmailing photograph in Bohemia to a night-time whistle at Stoke Moran, make up the first collection of Sherlock Holmes stories. These are the stories that set the pattern the rest of detective fiction borrowed: a client in the Baker Street sitting room, a problem stated in a page or two, Holmes reading a hat or a walking stick, and Watson recording the chain of reasoning afterwards. Because each case stands alone, the 312-page Fingerprint! Publishing paperback can be read straight through or opened at any story, which makes it workable for readers fitting fiction into short commutes. What's inside: • Twelve complete Holmes short stories in one 312-page volume • Cases built on disguise, cipher, inheritance and quiet blackmail • Self-contained chapters that can be read in any order • Watson's narration, with the deduction scenes the genre later copied A good fit for mystery readers, students of popular fiction and gift buyers, from Fingerprint!
