From country mansions to opium dens, the squalid backstreets of London Bridge to leafy avenues of Chelsea, this collection casts Sherlock Holmes in some of his most thrilling and wickedly clever adventures. Here six Napoleonic busts are violently destroyed throughout London; a strange, yellow face appears at a cottage window then mysteriously vanishes; dark horrors lurk beneath copper beeches; a man with a twisted lip hides a shameful secret; and of course the great detective dazzles with his ingenious mind. 13 short stories in total including also The Adventure of the Solitary Cyclist, Of the Noble Bachelor and The Blue Carbuncle. Concludes with a short essay by Michael Saler. Atmospheric woodcut illustrations by Sidney Paget from the original Strand magazine.
