Book description
'We must fall back upon the old axiom that when all other
contingencies fail, whatever remains, however improbable, must be
the truth.'
Sherlock Holmes's fearless chronicler Dr Watson once again opens his
notebooks to bring to light eight further tales of some of the
strangest and most fascinating cases to come before the enquiring mind
of London's most famous detective.
These mysteries involve the disappearance of secret plans as well as
of a lady of noble standing; the curious circumstances of Wisteria
Lodge and of the Devil's Foot; as well as the story His Last Bow, the
last outing of Holmes and Watson on the eve of the First World War.
