Summary

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes changed crime fiction forever and helped launch not just a popular character but an enduring legend who is just as loved today.

This audio book was narrated in London by experienced British stage actor Robert Maskell at a voice recording studio renowned for high production values.

The stories were originally featured not in a book at all, but were written as installments in a London magazine called The Strand.

Penned as always from the point of view of the ever-loyal Dr. Watson, these concise tales shed early light on Sherlock Holmes' analytical genius.

Throughout the 12 stories we see Holmes at his incisive and eccentric best. All groups within Victorian society feature, from European aristocrats to travelling Gypsies, mad doctors to innocent ladies. These are truly classic stories and a perfect introduction to the fascinating world of Sherlock Holmes.

The stories are presented in order that they were originally published:

  • 1 A Scandal in Bohemia
  • 2 The Adventure of the Red-Headed League
  • 3 A Case of Identity
  • 4 The Boscombe Valley Mystery
  • 5 The Five Orange Pips
  • 6 The Man with the Twisted Lip
  • 7 The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle
  • 8 The Adventure of the Speckled Band
  • 9 The Adventure of the Engineer's Thumb
  • 10 The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor
  • 11 The Adventure of the Beryl Coronet
  • 12 The Adventure of the Copper Beeches
