With an Introduction by David Stuart Davies. The Hound of the
Baskervilles is the classic detective chiller. It features the
world's greatest detective, Sherlock Holmes, in his most
challenging case. The Baskerville family is haunted by a phantom
beast "with blazing eyes and dripping jaws" which roams the
mist-enshrouded moors around the isolated Baskerville Hall on
Dartmoor. Now the hound seems to be stalking young Sir Henry, the
new master of the Baskerville estate. Is this devilish spectre the
manifestation of the family curse? Or is Sir Henry the victim of a
vile and scheming murderer? Only Sherlock Holmes can solve this
devilish affair. The Valley of Fear is a dark, powerful tale, which
provides the great detective with a most perplexing case and opens
with a vile murder: "Lying across his chest was a most curious
weapon, a shotgun with the barrel sawn off in front of the
triggers. It was clear that it had been fired at close range, and
that he had received the whole charge in the face, blowing his head
almost to pieces". Sherlock Holmes' arch enemy, the criminal genius
Professor Moriarty, is back! But the solution to the riddle, found
after many surprising twists and high dramas, lies far away, half
across the world in a location known as 'The Valley of Fear'. This
is Conan Doyle's last Holmes novel and in the opinion of many of
his fans, it is the best!
