It includes some of Conan Doyle’s best tales of murder and mystery, such as ‘The Adventures of the Speckled Band’, in which the strange last words of a dying woman ‘It was the band, the speckled band!’ and a inexplicable whistling in the night are the only clues Sherlock Holmes has to prevent another murder; and ‘The Five Orange Pips’, in which an untimely death and the discovery of the letter containing five orange pips lead to a cross-Atlantic conspiracy.
