The Hound of the Baskervilles

"Footprints? A man's or a woman's?" "Mr. Holmes, they were the footprints of a gigantic hound!"

On the desolate, fog-drenched moors of Devonshire, a centuries-old curse has returned to claim the life of Sir Charles Baskerville. Found dead near his ancestral home, his face is frozen in a mask of unspeakable terror. When the young heir, Sir Henry, arrives from Canada, the legend of a hellish, spectral hound becomes a terrifying reality. Is it a supernatural beast from the pits of hell, or a cold-blooded killer in human form?

Atmospheric Gothic Horror: Set against the treacherous backdrop of the Great Grimpen Mire—where one wrong step means a slow death in the bog—this novel is Doyle's most atmospheric work. Sherlock Holmes, remaining in the shadows while Dr. Watson investigates the eccentric neighbors and shifting lights of the moor, must use every ounce of his logic to fight a foe that seems to defy the laws of nature.

The Ultimate Mystery: The Hound of the Baskervilles is the perfect blend of a "locked-room" mystery and a sprawling outdoor thriller. It features some of the most iconic imagery in literature: the lonely telegrams, the silhouette on the tor, and the glowing, fire-breathing beast that haunts the night. It is a story about the triumph of science and reason over ancient superstition and the darkest of human greed.
