The Valley of Fear by Sir Arthur tells the tale of a murder that goes unsolved in the picturesque English countryside of Birlstone. The mysterious story revolves around John Douglas of Birlstone where Manor House's murder is astounding and considerably more compelling than any of the earlier Sherlock Holmes tales. Then, the elite criminal genius Professor James Moriarty, who makes his series debut in this tale, is also introduced. The voyage leads to the Scowrers, a clandestine organization of outlaws that are causing havoc in the valley's daily existence. The novel has two interesting turning points, almost like two separate climaxes. The first is the moment when a flamboyant detective solves the case, and the second is the conclusion of the flashback scene. There is no way to foresee what Sir Arthur has in store, no matter how brilliant you think you are. To know about this flamboyant detective and how he solved the case, you should read the novel! The interesting ending of the story can influence readers to read the complete collection of Sherlock Holmes short stories.

Starts as Sherlock Holmes style story; then to American gangster story; all tied together. I was interested when I saw the book published by Hard Case Crime; I was thrown a curve. GOOD READS
