Synopsis

The master of deduction Sherlock Holmes and his acolyte Dr Watson are here adapted into graphic novel form - a refreshing transformation which seems ''elementary'' for books that have previously been made into films with suspenseful storylines and strong visual elements. Full of intrigue and witty characterisation, The Hound of the Baskervilles takes readers to the Devon moors, where Holmes has to use all his logic to prove that the hound seen near Sir Charles Baskerville's dead body was not a supernatural manifestation of a curse, but the instrument of an earthly murder.
