In this book, Sherlock Holmes investigates the legend of the Baskerville family. Sherlock and his faithful friend Dr. Watson face the beast from Dartmoor in this thriller.
After Holmes is asked for help in securing the heir of Sir Charles Baskerville, the detective sends his friend Watson to investigate the case and keep an eye on young Sir Henry, the sole heir of the Baskerville family. When they arrive at Baskerville Castle, the legend of a giant dog rampaging across the wasteland will come to life...
It is interesting that back in the time of Conan Doyle and other authors wrote about the detective from London's foggy 221b Baker Street, which mostly dealt with the period before Holmes met Dr. Watson and achieved great success.
Translated, praised and read all over the world as the only true heir to the writing erudition of Umberto Eco, Iain Pears will keep you awake long after bedtime with his novel The Case of Smerkoaz.
