SHERLOCK HOLMES:DARK MYSTERIES(ILLUS) HB

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle had a lasting interest in the supernatural, and Sherlock Holmes expert David Stuart Davies has selected those Holmes and Watson cases that reflect this. The first is that classic novella, the terrifying The Hound of the Baskervilles, followed by nine Gothic adventures: The Sussex Vampire, The Creeping Man, Shoscombe Old Place, The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax, The Veiled Lodger, The Devil's Foot, The Blanched Soldier, The Retired Colourman and The Cardboard Box, all with the original illustrations.
