Summary

In The Valley of Fear, the great detective Sherlock Holmes has been summoned by a coded message to the house of a man called Douglas. But he and his faithful friend Dr. Watson arrive to find they are too late---Douglas has been murdered, with a mysterious calling card left by his side. Scotland Yard is stumped, but Holmes, detecting the diabolical workings of his arch-enemy Professor Moriarty, has some ideas of his own. Central to the novel lies the story of a terrorist brotherhood and the hold it acquired over an American mining valley.

This audiobook includes the bonus Sherlock Holmes story "The Final Problem."

Good story, poor accents

Fantastic story but it's slightly ruined by the the narrators 'Scottish' accent, which gets more and more annoying as the story goes on.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
