Presented here are the final three books of the Sherlock Holmes canon: the novel "The Valley of Fear" and two short story collections: "The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes" and "His Last Bow," all penned by Holmes' legendary creator, the great Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.


Despite his attempt to kill off his world-famous detective years earlier, Doyle here - decades later - finally brings Sherlock Holmes' adventures to a close.


First, we present the stories collected in "Case-Book," including the thriller "The Adventure of the Three Garridebs" and the haunting "Adventure of the Sussex Vampire." Next, the flashback novel "The Valley of Fear," in which Holmes grapples with his arch-nemesis - the Napoleon of Crime himself - Professor Moriarty. Then, at last, Holmes' swan song in which he comes out of retirement during World War I to assist his country one final time to help in the war effort and keep the German army at bay.


With these volumes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle finally brings the adventures of the greatest detective in fiction - Mr. Sherlock Holmes - to an end. These three books are presented here in their original and unabridged format.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was born on 22 May 1859 in Edinburgh. He studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh and began to write stories while he was a student. Over his life he produced more than thirty books, 150 short stories, poems, plays and essays across a wide range of genres. His most famous creation is the detective Sherlock Holmes, who he introduced in his first novel A Study in Scarlet (1887).

This was followed in 1889 by an historical novel, Micah Clarke. In 1893 Conan Doyle published 'The Final Problem' in which he killed off his famous detective so that he could turn his attention more towards historical fiction. However Holmes was so popular that Conan Doyle eventually relented and published The Hound of the Baskervilles in 1901.

The events of the The Hound of the Baskervilles are set before those of 'The Final Problem' but in 1903 new Sherlock Holmes stories began to appear that revealed that the detective had not died after all. He was finally retired in 1927. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle died on 7 July 1930.
