In these six short stories we join Sherlock Holmes, the famous private detective, as he tries to find out why some people have acted mysteriously and why others have disappeared or been attacked.
Using his sharp mind, great courage and unfailing ability to notice the smallest details, Holmes starts to uncover the truth. In the course of his adventures he and his friend Dr Watson meet some very clever and dangerous criminals - men and women who are ready to kill for money or revenge. But however clever they are, they cannot usually escape from the cool, determined detective of Baker Street.
