Arthur Conan Doyle

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) was a British author and physician best known as the creator of the iconic detective Sherlock Holmes. Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, Doyle studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh, where he developed an interest in storytelling. His first Holmes novel, A Study in Scarlet (1887), introduced readers to the brilliant detective and his companion, Dr. Watson, sparking a literary phenomenon.

In addition to the Holmes series, Doyle wrote historical novels, science fiction, and adventure stories, such as The Lost World. A staunch believer in spiritualism later in life, he authored several works on the subject. Doyle was knighted in 1902 for his contributions to literature and public causes, leaving a lasting legacy as one of the most celebrated writers of detective fiction.

    The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

    What if the greatest mysteries aren’t hidden in shadows—but lurk in plain sight? In The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, the brilliant, enigmatic detective and his steadfast partner, Dr. Watson, unravel crimes that defy logic, from stolen jewels to vanishing brides. But when a trail of riddles exposes motives darker than greed and minds sharper than his own, can even Holmes outwit a world where every truth masks a lie… or will the final deduction be his last?
