Ten years after the supposed death of Sherlock Holmes at the Reichenbach Falls, Arthur Conan Doyle was to bow to popular pressure and breathe new life into his creation. To the astonishment of Dr Watson, and the delight of his readers, Holmes reappears in Baker Street to embark on a new series of adventures. Amongst the famous cases he and Watson tackle are `The Dancing Men', `The Solitary Cyclist', and `The Six Napoleons'. Conan Doyle's own life provides inspiration for the tales, from his days as a student doctor on a Greenland whaler to the overwhelming grief he experienced from his wife's slow death from tuberculosis. - ;Ten years after the supposed death of Sherlock Holmes at the Reichenbach Falls, Arthur Conan Doyle was to bow to popular pressure and breathe new life into his creation.
