The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes is the final collection of Sherlock Holmes stories by Arthur Conan Doyle, published in 1927. It contains twelve short cases narrated mostly by Dr. Watson (with a few told by Holmes himself), showcasing the detective in some of his darker and more unusual investigations. The stories feature blackmailers, impostors, missing persons, mysterious deaths, and intricate deceptions. Though written later in Doyle’s career, these tales still highlight Holmes’s sharp reasoning, keen observation, and unorthodox methods as he solves puzzles that range from eerie and suspenseful to cleverly deceptive.
