The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes

Nine Sherlock Holmes mysteries fill this collection including: Silver Blaze: The "most remarkable horse in England" is stolenfrom his stable at King's Pyland, and his trainer, a former jockey named John Straker, is found on the moor with his skull crushed. Most mysteriously of all, why didn't the watchdog bark? The Yellow Face: "Watson, if it should strike you that I am becoming overconfident of my powers, kindly whisper ‘Norbury' in my ear." Thus Holmes confesses to one of his career's few errors! The Stock-broker's Clerk: A bright young clerk is hired by mysterious twin brothers to perform some foolish accounting problems at a most handsome wage. "I suppose we ought to call the police in now," Holmes murmurs to himself. "And yet I confess I'd like to give them a complete case when they come." Rounding out this collection are: The "Gloria Scott", The Musgrave Ritual, The Reigate Puzzle, The Crooked Man, The Greek Interpreter, The Naval Treaty, and The Final Problem.
