A Study in Scarlet

‘On his rigid face there stood an expression of horror such as I have never seen upon human features’

When Dr Watson meets Sherlock Holmes for the first time the ‘consulting detective’ immediately demonstrates his inimitable powers of observation, deducing that the doctor has returned to convalesce from a wound received during military service in Afghanistan. The two young men agree to share lodgings at 221B Baker Street, and it is not long before Holmes’s faculties are put to a more practical use. Inspector Gregson of Scotland Yard asks for help in solving what he describes as ‘a puzzler’: a man has been discovered dead, surrounded by blood—but with no wounds upon him.
