I enjoyed reading my childhood favorite Holmes stories again -- The Red-Headed League, The Copper Beeches, The Five Orange Pips, and a Scandal in Bohemia. Unlike Agatha Christie mysteries, Holmes isn't always a murder, the suspect isn't always caught, and Holmes doesn't always win. Great Victorian setting and I like that the stories are easily consumable -- about 25 minutes per story.
