More about the book

Set in the American West, this novel parodies the mystery genre through the character of Sherlock Holmes, who misapplies the scientific method in his crime-solving efforts. Twain humorously critiques Holmes' methods, showcasing his nephew, Fetlock Jones, who believes that Holmes can only solve crimes he orchestrates himself. The narrative cleverly blends humor and satire, highlighting the absurdities of detective fiction while presenting a unique twist on the iconic character.
