Conan Doyle killed Sherlock Holmes in “The Final Problem” (1893), the last story in The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes. However, he succumbed to the public pressure and resurrected him after a gap of nearly ten years in “The Adventure of the Empty House” (1903), the first story in this volume. It must have been a relief to his fans to know that he had never died as it was to Dr. Watson when Holmes revealed himself. Their favorite detective had finally made a comeback who would solve a host of odd crimes before opting for a life of retirement. Having revived Holmes, Conan Doyle went on to write two novels and 33 short stories featuring the detective. This volume contains 13 of them.

Medicine in 1881. He had started writing and publishing short stories to some acclaim during his student life but he became widely famous only after the publication of A Study in Scarlet, his first Sherlock Holmes work. Arguably the best crime fiction character ever, Sherlock Holmes practically made Doyle immortal as a writer. Featuring Holmes he wrote 4 novels and 56 short stories. Doyle was a prolific writer and in addition to his Holmes oeuvre he wrote many other novels and short stories. Among them The Lost World is another great work of fiction.
