But fearing for the safety of Sir Henry Baskerville, who is Sir Charles’s nephew and only known heir, Dr. James Mortimer travels to London and asks Holmes for help in figuring out the case.

About Arthur Conan Doyle

Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) practiced medicine in the resort town of Southsea, England, and wrote stories while waiting for his patients to arrive. In 1886, he created two of the greatest fictional characters of all time: the detective Sherlock Holmes and his partner, Dr. Watson. Over the course of four novels and fifty-six short stories, Conan Doyle set a standard for crime fiction that has yet to be surpassed.
