Sherlock Holmes in A study in scarlet

by A. Conan Doyle ; with numerous original engravings by G. Grimly

The year is 1881. The city, London. A man lies dead in an empty house, not a mark upon him, and no clues -- save for the word "Rache" scrawled in blood on the wall above. Elsewhere, two men -- a former Army doctor called John Watson and a brilliant eccentric called Sherlock Holmes -- meet for the first time. These two events set in motion an adventure into the darkest corners of men's hearts, as the cold, calculating investigative methods of Mr. Holmes are put to the test in a case that spans decades and continents, rife with danger and intrigue
