Doyle Arthur Conan The Return of Sherlock Holmes
Sherlock Holmes was the most popular character in Victorian fiction, but when arch-enemy Moriarty bumped him off at the Reichenbach Falls in 'The Final Problem' (1893), many readers were angry and dismayed.

The Return of Sherlock Holmes, published in 1903-4, was Arthur Conan Doyle's belated but brilliant response. What you get for your money here is a selection of hugely enjoyable detective stories written in the author's elegant but spare prose, and the chance to test your wits against 13 classic plot set-ups before the enigmatic sleuth beats you to the punch with his astonishing powers of deduction. This volume shows exactly why, more than a hundred years on, Holmes remains the world's number one detective.

Joseph Alison, Townsend Alexandra, Soanes John The Mammoth Book of the Adventures of Moriarty. The Secret Life of Sherlock Holmes's Nemesis
The secret life of Sherlock Holmes's nemesis, Moriarty . . . We think of Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson, but far more seductive is the pairing of Holmes and Professor James Moriarty, 'the Napoleon of crime' - a rivalry unparalleled in the world of crime fiction. Fiercely intelligent and a relentless schemer, Moriarty is the super-villain as megastar. This wonderfully diverse collection by writers such as Martin Edwards, Jurgen Ehlers, Barbara Nadel, L. C. Tyler, Michael Gregorio, Alison Joseph and Peter Guttridge reveals not just the evil side of Moriarty's personality, but his humanity, his motivations and his human failings. Some of the stories are humorous, some scary, but all are hugely entertaining.
