Product Description
This Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Edition includes a glossary and readers notes to help the modern reader contend with Doyles complicated vocabulary and allusions. World-famous Sherlock Holmes is once again called upon to put his uncanny detective techniques to work in The Hound of the Baskervilles. This mystery/horror story has become the archetype around which an entire genre has been created. First published in 1901, the novel tells the story of Sir Henry Baskerville, who arrives at Baskerville Hall to investigate the mysterious death of his uncle, Sir Charles. Charles strange and unexpected death resurrects long-ignored fears about an ancient and vengeful beast and a Baskerville family curse. Holmes, always calm and calculating, uses his keen powers of observation to discern the fine lines between good and evil, truth and fiction, and reason and superstition, even as the storys events threaten to spiral out of control.
