Synopsis

The classic mystery that started it all, brought to life in a whole new way.

A body in an abandoned house. No weapon. No motive. Just a single word written in blood on the wall. Scotland Yard is baffled. So they call in a consultant - a peculiar, brilliant, slightly unsettling man named Sherlock Holmes who sees things nobody else sees and knows things nobody else knows.

A Study in Scarlet is where everything begins. The first meeting between Holmes and Dr. Watson. The first glimpse of 221B Baker Street. The first time the world gets to watch the greatest detective in literature do what he does best - tear apart a seemingly impossible problem and reassemble it into something that looks, in hindsight, completely obvious.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle published this in 1887 and it changed detective fiction forever. The mystery itself is genuinely gripping, the solution takes you somewhere completely unexpected, and by the time it's over you'll understand exactly why readers have been following these two men around London for nearly 140 years.

This is the complete, unabridged narration by Brady Smith for Another World Audiobooks.

About Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Arthur Conan Doyle, a Scottish writer whose works include science fiction stories, historical novels, plays, romances, poetry, and nonfiction, is best known as the creator of the detective Sherlock Holmes. While Holmes was the embodiment of scientific thinking, Doyle himself did not exhibit the same rationality, believing in fairies and occultism. His Sherlock Holmes stories have been translated into more than fifty languages and have been made into plays, films, radio and television series, cartoons, and comic books. By 1920, Doyle was one of the most highly paid writers in the world. Other works by Doyle include The Lost World, the first book in the Professor Challenger series; The White Company, one of his many historical novels; and The Great Boer War.

Doyle was born at Picardy Place, near Edinburgh, in 1859. He was educated in Jesuit schools and studied at Edinburgh University. In 1884, he married Louise Hawkins. Doyle qualified as a doctor in 1885 and practiced medicine as an eye specialist in Hampshire until 1891, when he became a full-time writer. Doyle's first Sherlock Holmes story, A Study in Scarlet, was published in 1887 and introduced the detective's faithful associate, Dr. Watson.

During the Boer war in South Africa (1899-1902), Doyle served several months as the senior physician at a field hospital. There he wrote The War in South Africa, in which he expressed the imperial view. He twice ran unsuccessfully for Parliament but nevertheless was knighted in 1902. In 1907, fourteen months after his wife died, Doyle married Jean Leckie. After his son Kingsley died in the first World War, Doyle dedicated himself to spiritualistic studies at his home in Windlesham, Sussex. He died himself in 1930.
