About the book

An author who kills off his hero in so dramatic a fashion relatively early in that hero’s literary career, (and then of course returns him to life in an equally dramatic manner) has, perhaps, little else to offer us in the final stories of his famous character. Yet in this final series of short stories Conan Doyle does not cease from developing his famous detective, giving us a fascinating selection of tales. Narrated by Simon Hester. With original music by Simon Hester, performed by Simon Hester and Carmine Lauri.
