Penguin English Library: The Five Orange Pips and Other Cases

Witty and fiendishly clever, these tales of Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson see the duo solving mysteries in London’s foggy backstreets and behind the walls of country houses. In some of Conan Doyle’s most famous and devilishly difficult problems, they face locked rooms, strange letters, separated twins, and beautiful, brilliant Irene Adler.

Hugely popular since publication, Arthur Conan Doyle’s tales have been adapted countless times on stage and screen, and continue to influence crime writers today.
