Study in Scarlet and the Sign of the Four : Macmillan Collector-s Library

All legends begin somewhere, and the two novels here are where some of the world's best-loved legends began. In A Study in Scarlet<\i>, Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson first meet and investigate a seemingly impossible mystery that begins with a corpse in a deserted house. In The Sign of the Four<\i> the detective faces an even greater challenge: solving both the disappearance of Captain Arthur Morstan and the theft of the Agra treasure in India. In this Macmillan Collector's Library<\i> edition, Sherlock scholar David Stuart Davies provides both an illuminating afterword and a fascinating chronology of the Sherlock Holmes stories.
