Collection of short stories telling of different Sherlock Holmes cases. Here we meet Holmes' brother, see Holmes makes mistakes (even though it works out in the end) and we are introduced to Moriarty.

With most collections of Short Stories. Some were captivating and interesting and some stories were boring. A few even felt redundant. I was greatly disappointed in the introduction of Moriarty. I hope the following collections have more of Moriarty.

SPOILERS Ahead. Consider yourself warned!!

This is a collection of Holmes short stories and the one which contains The Final Problem. The Final Problem, aptly located at the end of the collection is the one where Holmes dies, falling with his arch-nemesis, Moriarty in the Reichenbach Falls.
