Description

Declared unfit for military life after an injury in the Anglo-Afghan War, Dr. Watson returns to London. He is hunting for a thrifty rented place when a friend introduces him to Sherlock Holmes, an amateur detective, who is looking for someone he can share lodgings with to split the rent. They find each other agreeable to live with and rent a place. One day, Holmes receives a telegram from Scotland Yard inviting him to visit a crime scene where a man lies murdered with "RACHE" (German word for revenge) written in blood on one of the walls. What will Holmes uncover when he applies his unparalleled logic to solve his first case? A Study in Scarlet was first published in 1887. It enjoys a dual status in crime fiction. Not only is it the doorway into the realm of Sherlock Holmes, but also into the ever-expanding world of crime fiction.

About the Author

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was born in Edinburgh, Scotland from where he did his graduation in medicine in 1881. He had started writing and publishing short stories to some acclaim during his student life but it was after the publication of A Study in Scarlet, his first Sherlock Holmes work that he became widely famous. 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.
