In tribute to Arthur Conan Doyle, here at last are the complete Canon stories in order of their creation, from "A Study In Scarlet" to "The Retired Colourman." I hope that you enjoy listening as much as I did narrating them.
-David Ian Davies
This collection includes:
The Resident Patient - When a Russian father and son disappear during a consultation with the doctor, Holmes is called in to find out why the doctor's benefactor is now the most frightened man in town.
The Greek Interpreter: In this adventure we are at last introduced to Sherlock Holmes’ brother Mycroft, the only relative of whom Watson’s friend has ever openly spoken during their long assocation. Mycroft, says Sherlock Holmes, is Sherlock’s superior in intelligence and observation but cannot put the gifts to practical use. They stroll to the singular accomodations of the Diogenes Club, and as Dr. Watson becomes acquainted with the elder Holmes, Mycroft introduces them to a Grecian interpreter. The man’s bizarre story draws the detective and his companion into a case of extortion, kidnapping, fraud, cruelty and violence.
The Naval Treaty: Holmes must recover a stolen document, prevent a diplomatic crisis between England and Italy, and save the career of a young and rising diplomat.
The Final Problem: Sherlock Holmes’ determination to destroy the powerful criminal organization of Professor Moriarty reaches its crisis as Holmes and Watson attempt to track down and finally apprehend its Master.
The Adventure of the Empty House: While still grieving over his great friend's death, Watson is stunned, relieved and joyful when Holmes suddenly appears and reveals that he has escaped an untimely end in that fatal struggle with his mortal enemy, Moriarty, at Reichenbach Falls. The criminal underworld suspects this, says Holmes, and Watson is drawn anew into Holmes's plot to deceive his enemies and foil a probable attempt upon his life.
The Adventure of the Norwood Builder: Young John McFarland is accused of the violent murder of a man who has just left all his worldly goods to the accused in his will. The evidence against the great detective’s client mounts and Holmes candidly admits to Watson that, perhaps, the case Lestrade is building is as sound as Holmes believes it is untrue.
