Synopsis

This volume brings together ten Sherlock Holmes stories, ranging from the pursuit of an ancient, priceless statue to a case shaped by the intricate compositions of a celebrated but mute nine-year-old violin savant. Elsewhere, a late-night visitor at 221B Baker Street challenges Holmes to solve a crime with little to go on, while an eccentric apiarist’s violent death sets deduction against a deadly insect adversary.

The collection also follows a young New York detective who seeks Holmes’ help in London, a mystery linked to a strange rooftop structure and a missing earl, and a series of crimes committed by a man who resembles Holmes himself. Later tales include one final case before Holmes and Watson retire, a far-reaching plot designed to trap Holmes permanently, and a tribute to H. G. Wells in which a solitary Martian forces a battle of intellect within 221B Baker Street.
