A Man Named Baskerville

Beschreibung

He took on Sherlock Holmes and lost. Now he wants revenge. In 1888, Sherlock Holmes slayed the spectral hound haunting the Devonshire moor, thereby laying to rest the curse of the Baskervilles once and for all. The perpetrator escaped into the night and was presumed drowned, consumed by the murky bog... In truth, the criminal mastermind survived the night to nurse his wounds and plot his revenge against Sherlock Holmes. A MAN NAMED BASKERVILLE recounts the life and times of Rodger Baskerville, heir to the esteemed family's fortune. His journal records his adventures from the Amazon rainforests to the beaches of Costa Rica to Victorian England, where he attempts to rejoin his family and take his rightful place at Baskerville Hall. Along the way, he peels back the layers of family secrets and scandals untold in Watson's account of the demonic hound haunting the Baskervilles. Most of all, he describes a Sherlock Holmes unlike the legendary detective you think you know. A MAN NAMED BASKERVILLE retells the infamous Arthur Conan Doyle mystery in a way you've never read before. It's a sizzling new take on a classic hailed as a masterpiece of the English language, named one of the most influential books ever by the BBC and Le Monde, and beloved by Sherlock Holmes fans worldwide for over a century.
