About this book
A blazing August day in Baker Street sets the scene, with Watson idle in the heat and Holmes curled on the sofa over a letter. Holmes then answers a thought Watson never spoke aloud, and explains how he followed it, recalling a sketch by Poe. Before this, Watson explains in a short preface why he chooses cases with little sensation. He calls what follows a strange and terrible chain of events. Arthur Conan Doyle's short story first appeared in The Strand Magazine in 1893.
