Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Novels and Stories contains, in two volumes, all fifty-six short stories and four novels featuring Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s world-famous detective.

The short stories collected here include such celebrated gems as “The Adventure of Wisteria Lodge,” “The Adventure of the Red Circle,” “The Adventure of the Devil’s Foot,” “The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire,” and “His Last Bow: The War Service of Sherlock Holmes.” With the stories from the final collection, The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes, published in 1927, this volume carries the venerable detective through to the very end of his enthralling four-decade career as one of the most beloved characters in literature.
