Sir Arthur Conan Doyle presents twelve concluding cases that pit Holmes and the ever-faithful Dr. Watson against blackmailers, murderers, and masters of deceit — from the sinister science of The Adventure of the Creeping Man to the chilling domestic horror of The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire — each mystery unfolding with the razor-sharp logic and atmospheric tension that defined an entire genre.\n\nBeyond the ingenious plots, these stories illuminate broader themes of mortality, legacy, and the relentless march of modernity against which Holmes's singular genius burns all the brighter. Conan Doyle's prose is taut and evocative, suffused with the fog-laden atmosphere of Edwardian England, and this collection carries an unmistakable elegiac quality — a master author bidding farewell to his most immortal creation. Published by the venerable John Murray of Albemarle Street, London, this first-edition imprint stands as a landmark in detective fiction; one is left to wonder whether any case, truly, was ever Holmes's last.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49160958607579,"sku":"2026200013848-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/37621ec5-cd6d-43f5-b69a-27c916fbae46.png?v=1787188502","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200013848-secondhand-the-case-book-of-sherlock-holmes","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
