When the infamous Moriarty’s underling Fred Porlock sends Holmes a coded message, it reveals impending danger to John Douglas of Birlstone House. I knew it from the care he took with his own safety, and from the way he looked at strangers, and from words he occasionally spoke.” **Īlex Woolf retells “The Valley of Fear,” an Arthur Conan Doyle Sherlock Holmes short story about a case involving secret societies and secret identities. ** “I’ve always felt there was danger hanging over him.
I love that these are cut down for younger readers or daunted readers that want a classic story but condensed down. This series is still really fun and I like the way Holmes solves all of his case he has such a unique mind. Some cases are less fascinating than others but it was still a good read. It wasn’t the most exciting mytsery either unfortunately and didn’t find I was drawn into this one that much. I was really confused by a lot of this case there was so much going on I couldn’t even make it out. It was really interesting the way he deducted each part of this case to figure it all out. Holmes had pieced together multiple possible stories of what happened, not actually revealing the truth until he could capture the culprit and get the truth.
This was such a twisty case, it kept changing and going in so many directions it’s crazy. A man shot in his house, clues everywhere to figure out what really happened in this tangled mess of a case. Holmes received a coded message just as he cracks it an officer arrives with a case that matches what was in the code. Thank you so much to Arcturus and a Netgalley for the ebook to read and review.
