I have always loved Sherlock Holmes stories.I can't say anything against Sherlock Holmes books. The manor is surrounded by a moat, the drawbridge raised at night how did a stranger get in, commit the murder and disappear unseen by the servants and why the murder, nothing was taken from the home....Later information discovered by the famous detective, states that when Mr.Douglas lived in America and where he made his fortune under a different name, he was involved with a secret society of miners the "Scowrers" ( patterned after the infamous Molly Maguires) in the grimy dangerous, coal fields of eastern Pennsylvania the Vermissa Valley, frequently snowbound nicknamed "The Valley of Fear, "Murder is common there and the authorities unable to stop the bloodletting, the population afraid and helpless to stop it, the Scowrers control vast areas in their endless fight with the mine owners and the mostly Irish coal minors continue , year after year... A Sherlock Holmes novel, only one of four written by the great Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, that is really two different narratives one set in England with Holmes and the other in America, with Mr."Douglas" both are interesting and highly exciting but some will be rather disappointed, in the lack of the main character in the latter... 4,5 stars. The content of the story just doesn't justify it. Sherlock Holmes seemed to be a unique character, with funny, but loveable quirks, and so I knew that I had to get into the source material as well.

(I’ve heard there are other continuity errors in the Sherlock stories, but those must’ve escaped me.).

But the first half was just an extended Holmes story (a pretty good one! It didn't hang together quite as well as the rest. For even more, visit our Family Entertainment Guide. Title: Asking for help from the famous private detective the young policeman is not ashamed, he needs assistance they all travel to the crime house but not before Holmes discloses his theory about Professor Moriarity, a seemingly brilliant scientist and law abiding citizen, who Sherlock says is the criminal chief of the underworld, MacDonald is skeptical... Something is not quite right as Holmes looks around, (the grateful provincial constables, watch ) feels uncomfortable, Mrs.Douglas and Cecil James Barker the husband's best friend are not acting properly and the local police theory how the killing happened, he doesn't believe.

I was already annoyed near the start of this, because Watson (and others) knowing of Moriarty contradicts the earlier (though it’s set later) story that Moriarty appears in, in which Watson (and others) know nothing of him. Dr. Watson comes along to help out, but the solution of the case is disappointing and Sherlock wasn't given much to do. [...] The old wheel turns, and the same spoke comes up. I don‘t think I ever read this! I was initially very excited to dive into the Sherlock canon, because I've enjoyed both the TV series and the movie adaptations. Classic Sherlock Holmes, Arthur Conan Doyle at his finest. Over the last year I’ve re-read ‘A Study in Scarlet’, ‘The Sign of Four’ and ‘The Hound of the Baskervilles’. Refresh and try again. The Valley of Fear This book contains two stories which tie up nicely towards the end. Written 25 years after my favourite Holmes story, The Sign of the Four.

If you love a page-turning mystery, you are in for a treat this month. Looking for a movie the entire family can enjoy? This is the least enjoyable compared to his earlier 3 novels. The first part was quite interesting and intriguing but the second part was a little slow and it took a little effort on my part to hold my attention. The Valley of Fear (Sherlock Holmes, #7) , Arthur Conan Doyle The Valley of Fear is the fourth and final Sherlock Holmes novel by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

I don't think this should have been a full length novel. We’d love your help. However, there was a. Add the first question.
