In this thrilling tale of fear and tyranny, Sherlock Holmes must battle his greatest - and most lethal - enemy.

'It is the Valley of Fear, the Valley of Death. The terror is in the hearts of the people from the dusk to the dawn. Wait, young man, and you will learn for yourself'.

Sherlock Holmes is intrigued and disturbed when he receives an ominous coded message: a Mr Douglas of Birlstone House is in terrible danger. Before Holmes can act, shocking news arrives. Douglas has been founded dead - his face blown off by a shotgun. Scotland Yard is stumped. Was this suicide or murder? But Holmes is in no doubt. For he recognises the calling card of his nemesis. Professor James Moriarty.

He was a physician and writer, most noted for his Sherlock Holmes books, which are generally considered a major innovation in crime fiction. Conan Doyle had 2 children with his first wife, Louise Hawkins, who died in 1906. He went on to marry Jean Lackie, with whom he had 3 more children. He died of a heart attack in 1930.

Industry Reviews

He is unique in simultaneously bringing down the curtain on an era and raising one on another, ushering in a genre of writing that... has never been surpassed. His own life, as footballer... eye surgeon, champion of injustice and investigator into the paranormal, is the stuff of legend. Personally, I would walk a mile in tight boots to read his letters to the milkman * Stephen Fry, The Arthur Conan Doyle Collection *
