About The Book

When Sir Eustace Brackenstall is found dead with horrible injuries Scotland Yard are quick to ask for the assistance of Sherlock Holmes. Cases involving the upper echelons of Victorian Society are nothing new for Holmes and his colleague Dr Watson; the thirteen stories in this collection include the abduction of the son of the Duke of Holdernesse and the dilemma of an aristocratic debutante who wishes to retrieve a compromising letter before it reaches her noble fiancé. As usual the surreal is never far from Holmess orbit as in the bizarre case of the thief who steals plaster casts of the Emperor Napoleon - only to smash them to pieces. Whilst the official police have no option but to prosecute crime Holmes and Watson are able to exercise discretion when they see fit. In this collection there are several examples of such compassion where the two friends show the humanity and kindness which always underlie their investigations and which help endear them to the reader. The Baker Street Classics Sherlock Holmes collection is a retro-inspired full set of Conan Doyles wonderful tales of the inimitable consulting detective at work. Featuring original illustrations from editions of the 1920s this collection will adorn any booklovers shelf and transport the reader back in time to Holmess bustling Victorian London; the misty moors of Dartmoor; the dizzying heights of Reichenbach; and the cozy living room of 221b Baker Street.
