What this book is about

Arthur Conan Doyle's final collection of Sherlock Holmes stories — published in 1927 — gathers twelve tales from the great detective's later career, including some of the more ambitious and experimental entries in the canon. Holmes and Watson remain the great partnership of detective fiction, and the Casebook shows Doyle still capable of genuine mystery and characterization even as he tired of his most famous creation.
