With his devoted secretary, Dr. Watson, Holmes emerges from his smoke-filled rooms on Baker Street to grapple with the forces of treachery, intrigue, and evil in such cases as \"The Speckled Band,\" in which a terrified woman begs Holmes and Watson's help in solving the mystery surrounding her sister's death, and \"A Scandal in Bohemia,\" which portrays a European king blackmailed by his mistress. A spine-tingling treat for anyone who loves a classic whodunit, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes shows the inimitable detective at his best.
