Spoiler-ific review
This is an anthology of some of Sherlock Holmes’ best mysteries. They are universally excellent.
I read A Case of Identity, The Boscombe Valley Mystery, The Five Orange Pips, The Man with a Twisted Lip and the Adventure of the Speckled Band. All were good.
Highly recommended.
Stay Sunny!
