Overview

In Conan Doyle’s final six stories featuring Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, the duo face some of their most challenging cases yet.

In “The Adventure of the Illustrious Client,” Holmes puts his own life in danger as he tries to cut short a young girl’s infatuation with the notorious wife-murderer Baron Gruner.

Why is Mrs. Maberley offered a handsome price for the “Three Gables,” provided she leaves at once and takes nothing with her?

Even in his retirement, Holmes’ skills are called upon as he follows a trail of death on the Sussex coast in “The Adventure of the Lion’s Mane.”

About the Author

About The Author

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) was born of Irish parentage in Scotland. He studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh, but he also had a passion for storytelling. His first book introduced that prototype of the modern detective in fiction, Sherlock Holmes. Despite the immense popularity Holmes gained throughout the world, Doyle was not overly fond of the character and preferred to write other stories. Eventually popular demand won out and he continued to satisfy readers with the adventures of the legendary sleuth. He also wrote historical romances and made two essays into pseudoscientific fantasy: The Lost World and The Poison Belt.


David Timson is an actor, voice actor, and playwright. He is best known for his narration of The Complete Sherlock Holmes audiobook, in which he voices all 125 characters in the Holmes novels and short stories. His narrations have earned eight AudioFile Earphones Award.
