The Hound of the Baskervilles

by Arthur Conan Doyle
The Hound of the Baskervilles
The Hound of the Baskervilles

Moors, mystery, iconic detective, lurking terror.

Doyle’s “The Hound of the Baskervilles” is a classic that combines the intrigue of a detective novel with the suspense of a gothic horror. The setting on the misty moors contributes to an atmosphere filled with tension, perfectly complementing the legendary tale that challenges even Sherlock Holmes himself. As you follow Dr. Watson through eerie landscapes and perplexing clues, the book grips you with a haunting question: Is the threat supernatural or the work of a cunning mortal? Either way, it’s a story that stays with you, like the fog of the moors it’s set in.

Description

Some blame the sudden death of Sir Charles Baskerville on the legend of a fearsome and ghostly hound that is said to have haunted his Devonshire family for generations. So when the services of famed detective Sherlock Holmes are engaged to ensure the safety of Baskerville heir Sir Henry – recently arrived from America – Dr Watson is surprised to find his friend dismissive of the matter. In fact, Watson is dispatched alone to accompany Sir Henry to Baskerville Hall in Devon while Holmes deals with another case. Yet Watson finds the wild moors are a far cry from the orderly streets of London, and in the cold night a savage and bestial howl may be heard ...
