About this book

Plagued by a rare tropical disease, Sherlock Holmes attempts to solve a dangerous case from the confines of his bed.

Hemmed within the restraints of his Baker Street flat, the unstoppable detective, Sherlock Holmes, is dying. Afflicted with a rare tropical disease, he calls upon his closest friend and sleuthing partner, Doctor Watson, to assist him. Feverish but as sharp as ever, Holmes attempts to stop a sinister plot from his deathbed.

First published in 1913, 'The Adventure of the Dying Detective' is a classic short story from the master of detective fiction, Arthur Conan Doyle. This edition features a specially commissioned introduction.
