Publisher Description
In our last encounter with Mr. Holmes, his colleague and friend, Watson, presumed his death at the discovery of a violent struggle amidst Reichenbach Falls. But in a surprising fashion in true Sherlock Holmes form, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle reveals that the detective is in fact alive and well! Was this purely an extravagant ruse performed by the brilliant sleuth? Or did he somehow come back from the dead? In The Return of Sherlock Holmes, the mystery is revealed as Doyle gives us 13 original stories narrated by dear Watson. Their new adventures will delight all fans once again as Sherlock Holmes is brought back to life to spark the opening of a brand new beginning.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Those for whom the Oxford University Press edition (1993) was not the final word on the canon won't want to miss the latest volume in the Sherlock Holmes Reference Library, The Return of Sherlock Holmes, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and edited by Leslie S. Klinger. As David Stuart Davies notes in his introduction, Klinger provides annotations at once "scholarly, instructive and enlightening," as well as chronologies for the individual stories and a bibliography of secondary works.
