Loved this one. The moor setting is brilliant and the dialogue between Holmes and Watson is so good here

Quite an entertaining read and one where you see Holmes actually doing the sleuthing.
Red herrings abound!

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle‘s stories about Mr. Holmes and Dr. Watson are classics for sure! This book didn’t disappoint me and was easy to read despite its age. Of course, one reason for this might be the short chapters, which each consist of one case.
