In Conan Doyle’s final six stories featuring Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, the duo face some of their most challenging cases yet. In “The Adventure of the Illustrious Client,” Holmes puts his own life in danger as he tries to cut short a young girl’s infatuation with the notorious wife-murderer Baron Gruner. Why is Mrs. Maberley offered a handsome price for the “Three Gables,” provided she leaves at once and takes nothing with her? Even in his retirement, Holmes’ skills are called upon as he follows a trail of death on the Sussex coast in “The Adventure of the Lion’s Mane.”

Author Bio: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) was a writer and physician most noted for his fictional stories about the detective Sherlock Holmes, the first scientific detective, which are generally considered milestones in the field of crime fiction. Before becoming a writer, he attended the University of Edinburgh to train as a physician, and it was from his teacher, Joseph Bell, that he learned much of what would inspire Holmes’s skills of deduction. He also wrote science fiction stories, historical novels, plays, romances, poetry, and nonfiction. After his son Kingsley died in the first World War, he became a convert to spiritualism and a social reformer who used his investigative skills to prove the innocence of individuals.
