CONAN DOYLE, SIR ARTHUR
Sherlock Holmes is famous around the world. When the police cannot solve a crime, they turn to Holmes. He never misses a clue, and when he looks carefully at a person, he can understand everything about them. These are two of the best Sherlock Holmes stories. In 'The Dead Coachman', Holmes investigates a burglary and a murder while he is staying in the countryside with his friend Doctor Watson. In 'The Last Mystery', Holmes is in danger from the evil Professor Moriarty, who is as clever as the detective himself. They are both ready to fight to the death. But who will win?
El éxito y la popularidad conseguidos con sus personales - Sherlock Holmes, Watson, el profesor Challenger o el brigadier Gérard - inclinaron hacia la literatura al novelista británico sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930), médico de profesión. Sin embargo, desempeñó tareas sanitarias dentro del ejército en la campaña de Sudán y en la guerra de los bóers. Además de renovar el género policiaco, creó novelas de anticipación como El mundo perdido.
