The Lion's Mane About the Author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the ingenious author behind the Sherlock Holmes series, was not only a prolific writer but also a medical doctor, athlete, and adventurer. His unique blend of scientific knowledge and creative storytelling allowed him to craft a character like Sherlock Holmes, who captivates readers of all ages. Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1859, Conan Doyle's fascination with detective work and mystery led him to create the iconic detective duo Holmes and Watson. His vivid descriptions of 221B Baker Street and the foggy streets of London have made these stories timeless classics. Conan Doyle's literary legacy extends beyond the realms of mystery, as he also wrote historical novels and science fiction and even dabbled in spiritualism. His contributions to literature continue to inspire generations of readers, and his creation, Sherlock Holmes, remains a symbol of intellect, curiosity, and the enduring appeal of a well-crafted mystery.

After a mysterious murder leaves the police baffled, the world’s best amateur detective is asked to investigate. Along with his fellow lodger, Dr Watson, Sherlock Holmes sets about uncovering a quest for revenge that runs far deeper than anybody suspected. The Sign of the Four “Be at the third pillar from the left outside the Lyceum Theatre tonight at seven o’clock. You are a wronged woman and shall have justice. Do not bring police. If you do, all will be in vain.” When Holmes is asked to look into a cryptic message received by Mary Morstan, neither he nor Watson expect to be drawn into a decades-old web of betrayal. Soon they’re conducting dangerous moonlit expeditions to uncover the meaning of the sign of the four, and resolve a long-buried crime. The Blue Carbuncle A valuable jewel known as the Blue Carbuncle was stolen from the jewel case of the Countess of Morcar yesterday. A reward of £1000 has been offered by the countess for information leading to the stone’s return … While the police work to trace the missing diamond, Holmes attempts to reunite a Christmas dinner and its owner.

Sherlock Holmes Children's Collection 20 Books (Series 1 & 2) by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle - Ages 7-9 - Paperback Sweet Cherry Publishing
Vendor: Books2door.com Price: 24.99 £ (+2.99 £)A simplification of Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes, perfect for young fans of mystery books aged 7+. Includes QR codes for the free audio. This set is one of our bestsellers and the beautiful box packs the timeless classics together. This ten-book set includes A Study In Scarlet, The Sign of the Four, The Blue Carbuncle, The Speckled Band, The Naval Treaty, The Sussex Vampire, The Red Headed League and The Three Student About Sherlock Holmes: Sherlock Holmes, a fictional character created by the author Arthur Conan Doyle. Holmes made his debut impression in Conan Doyle’s A Study in Scarlet in 1887. He would chase and seek criminals tirelessly during the Victorian and Edwardian London, in Europe and southern England. Since its creation, Holmes has remained one of the most profound and recognizable characters in the detective world and genre. The writer Conan Doyle had actually created the character Sherlock Holmes based off of his University professor Dr. Joseph Bell at University of Edinburgh Medical School. One key characteristic that Holmes shares with his real life self of Dr. Bells is his miraculous ability to collect crucial information and evidence from his natural talent of observation and analytical skills and reasoning. Sherlock Holmes is accompanied by his trusted friend and companion Dr. John H. Watson who both pursues the mind bending cases together. Even though Holme’s ability to solve problems seems to be perplexing and difficult to grasp, he has quoted his straightforward approach to his objectives: “When you have excluded the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable must be the truth”. In his story, Holmes is portrayed as a very untidy person, his London abode is organised and tidied up by his housekeeper. Holmes' strong personality is shown when he is not working on a case, he is often subjected to depression, playing violin, and uses drugs and smoking to pass time. Sherlock Holmes is described as a tall, thin and dark man with a high nose, strong eyes and angled shoulders. About the author: Arthur Conan Doyle born in 22 May 1859, trained as a doctor, worked as a surgeon and also a medical officer. However when his writer career began, he focussed on many stories and one of which was Sherlock Holmes, the series became an instant success in England since its appearance published in Beeton’s Christmas Annual. Despite the success of Sherlock Holmes, Arthur wanted to end the series by killing off the character in hopes that he could prioritise other writing ideas he had at the time. However the public and fans who were die-hard followers of his work at the time made a massive commotion which pressured Arthur to revive Sherlock Holmes. Conan also wrote many other titles such as The Lost World' and several other non-fiction books. Titles in this set: A Study In Scarlet The Sign of the Four The Blue Carbuncle The Speckled Band The Red Headed League The Reigate Squires The Naval Treaty The Sussex Vampire The Three Students...
