Synopsis

Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories began with A Study in Scarlet, published in Beeton’s Christmas Annual in 1887, before the series was serialised in the Strand Magazine from 1891. The account also describes how Doyle wrote Holmes’s death in The Final Problem in 1893, and later returned to the detective in The Hound of the Baskervilles. Holmes was ultimately brought back in The Empty House (1903), identified here as the first adventure in The Return of Sherlock Holmes.
