The First Adventure of Sherlock Holmes: A Study In Scarlet

Arthur Conan Doyle (Author) Mike Kennedy (Contributor) Vincent Mallie (Artist)

A BEAUTIFUL ILLUSTRATED NOVEL OF SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE'S FIRST NOVEL FEATURING SHERLOCK HOLMES! London, 1878. Poor Dr Watson returns from India completely penniless and on the verge of despair when he meets Sherlock Holmes, a whimsical guy who also happens to be looking for a roommate. The pair move into 221 Baker Street when one of Scotland Yard's top sleuths enlists the talented Detective Holmes to help solve a dark murder case. Together, Watson and Holmes will lead the investigation and cement a partnership that will last for years to come. Structured in two parts, with the murder investigation in the first half, and a clever tale-within-a-tale flashback in the second part, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle transports us from a Victorian London atmosphere to the frontiers of Utah and Nevada in the 1860s; a true global adventure. First published in 1887, author Arthur Conan Doyle released this first novel introducing the world to the brilliant Sherlock Holmes. The character became immensely popular, going on to star in four novels and 56 short stories before breaking out into nearly every other medium known, from stage and screen to video games.
