For fans of the great detective, this volume collects 10 classic tales of mystery and detection. In addition to the complete short novel The Hound of the Baskervilles, it includes several stories that Holmes's creator, Arthur Conan Doyle, himself selected as the intrepid pair's greatest adventures: A Scandal in Bohemia, The Speckled Band, The Red-Headed League and The Final Problem, in which Doyle famously "killed off" his creation.
