A propos du livre

Críticas

If Conan Doyle had written only this first novel introducing Holmes to Watson (newly returned from service in Afghanistan), he would have deserved his reputation. The murder of two Americans in London is revealed as revenge for a grievous wrong perpetrated by members of the Mormon community. Superb. - Rachel Redford, The Observer

Reseña del editor

"'Dr Watson, Mr Sherlock Holmes,' said Stamford introducing us..." and with these words the world is also introduced for the first time to the great detective and his indefatigable assistant. A Study in Scarlet was published in 1887, the first of Conan Doyle's full-length Holmes novels. It plunges us straight into the dark world of an unsolved murder in Victorian London, which has links to the American West and the Mormons. Holmes displays his powers to solve 'the scarlet thread of murder running through the colourless skein of life.' With music by Dvorak and Parry.
