The Crooked Man tells the story of a long lost love who returns but horribly changed, revealing an awful treachery which has been kept secret for many decades. The Greek Interpreter features Holmes’ brother Mycroft who leads Holmes and Watson to a hideous murder and the betrayal of a foreign heiress. In The Naval Treaty we hear that an innocent man’ honour, position and health are at stake when a treaty of the utmost importance is stolen from his office. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson bring their own expertise to unravel these mysteries.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Arthur Conan Doyle was born in 1859. He trained to be a doctor at Edinburgh University and eventually set up a medical practice in Southsea. During the quiet periods between patients, he turned his hand to writing, producing historical novels such as Micah Clarke and adventure yarns including The Lost World, as well as four novels and fifty-six stories involving his most celebrated creations, Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. Doyle was knighted in 1902. In later life he devoted much of his time to his belief in Spiritualism, using his writing and celebrity as a means of providing funds to support activities in this field. He died in 1930.
