Thirteen of Dr Watson's records of the Cases of Sherlock Holmes. These stories were the outcome of world-wide protest at the death of Sherlock Holmes as narrated in the last story in The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes.

Review of 'The Return of Sherlock Holmes' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

I like Sherlock Holmes novels, but these short stories are my favourite way to read this private detective. These stories are mysterious and the action never stops, they truly are tasty crime-fiction snacks. "The Adventure of the Empty House" is particularly good, and I also enjoyed "The Adventure of Charles Augustus Milverton" and "The Adventure of the Second Stain". Possibly because in those the story unravels in a different direction. My only complaint is that I wanted to know more of Mary Morstan, but she seems to have vanished from Watson's life.
