Inhaltsangabe:

My mind rebels at stagnation. Give me problems, give me work, give me the most abstruse cryptogram or the most intricate analysis, and I am in my own proper atmosphere.
-Sherlock Holmes, The Sign of the Four.

Solve puzzles alongside the greatest detective of them all with this collection of fiendish and hugely entertaining puzzles and enigmas. Some involve riddles, some plays on words, and some rely on mathematical principles. Use your powers of logical deduction, and see if you can match the towering intellect of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's world-famous detective, Sherlock Holmes.

Not only does this collection include brilliant puzzles to ponder over, but it presents these quandaries within exchanges between Holmes and Dr. Watson. In this way, this puzzle book retains the same cozy Victorian charm that Holmes' tales are so loved for.

Featuring the original pen and ink illustrations by Sidney Paget and George Wylie Hutchinson, this gorgeously designed puzzle book will immerse you in Holmes's mysteries and keep you entertained for hours.

Sherlock Holmes is the world's best-loved and most widely known fictional detective and his novels and the numerous adaptations of them are enduringly popular.

This remarkable collection features all kinds of puzzles to suit all tastes.
