Publisher's Description of Hound of the Baskervilles (Signet Classic)
A country doctor has come to 221B Baker Street, the lodgings of famed detective Sherlock Holmes, with the eerie tale of the Hound of the Baskervilles. The legend warns the descendants of the Baskerville family never to venture out on the moors that surround their ancestral home, for fear that they will meet the devil-beast that lurks there.
Such a story sounds preposterous to any man of reason, but now Sir Charles Baskerville is dead—and the footprints of a giant hound have been found near his body. Sherlock Holmes and his faithful friend Dr. John Watson agree to investigate the truth of the matter. They will soon learn that in this case, nothing is quite as it seems….
Category Description for Hound Of Baskervilles
Proclaimed as the best detective of all time, this adventure takes Sherlock Holmes to the Devonshire home of the Baskervilles. Sir Charles Baskerville has been found dead, with no apparent cause of death, despite the look of terror frozen on his face. Holmes is brought in to investigate, as years ago a hound-like beast was rumored to have killed another one of the Baskervilles. As Holmes and Watson begin to investigate, howls from the edge of the mire may signal another vicious legendary hound. Both are unabridged; Wordsworth Edition also includes "The Valley of Fear". ~ Melissa
