Sherlock Holmes Adventures

~ Sherlock Holmes Adventures ~

Author: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Publisher: Nelson Readers

Summary of Silver Blaze:
Silver Blaze was the fastest and most famous racehorse in the country. And suddenly, a few days before the Wessex Race, he was gone and his trainer was dead.

Summary of Thor Bridge:
The wife of "The Gold King" or Neil Gibson, was dead and the police had a woman in prison for it. Gibson did not agree about it, and sent a letter to Holmes and Watson.

Summary of The Stockbroker's Clerk:
A young clerk, Hall Pycroft, consults Holmes with his suspicions concerning a company that has offered him a very well-paid job. Holmes, Watson and Pycroft travel by train to Birmingham where the job is initially to be based, and Pycroft explains that he was recently made redundant from a stock broking house.


My opinion:
It's a good book, and it doesn't reveal the end of the story until the end.
