    A secret pact between four convicts and two prison guards over the division of buried treasure can only lead to one thing: murder and another case for Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. The Sign of the Four is the second Sherlock Holmes novel and in many ways presents a more human side to the great detective.

And for the fortunate Dr Watson there is the opportunity to meet a person who will change his life forever. This edition includes An Introduction to Sherlock Holmes by J. S. Williams.

    HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. 'Sherlock Holmes was transformed when he was hot upon such a scent as this. Men who had only known the quiet thinker and logician of Baker Street would have failed to recognize him. His face flushed and darkened. His brows were drawn into two hard black lines, while his eyes shone out from beneath them with a steely glitter.' Set against the foggy, mysterious backdrops of London and the English countryside, these are the first twelve stories ever published to feature the infamous Detective Sherlock Holmes and his side kick Doctor Watson. They first appeared as stories in the Strand Magazine and feature some of his most famous and enjoyable cases, including 'A Scandal in Bohemia', 'The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle' and 'The Red-headed League'.

  5. Návrat Sherlocka Holmesa

    Sherlock Holmes, podobne ako mnohí veľkí umelci, žil pre samo svoje umenie a často odmietol pomôcť boháčom a mocným tohto sveta, ak v ňom ich prípad neprebudil záujem. Na druhej strane obetoval týždne tej najintenzívnejšej práce záležitostiam obyčajných ľudí, ak sa ich prípady vyznačovali čímsi zvláštnym alebo dramatickým, čo prebúdzalo jeho predstavivosť a čo bolo výzvou pre jeho mimoriadne schopnosti. Jeho neustále sa šíriaca povesť prinášala so sebou aj čoraz rozsiahlejšiu prax a z detektíva sa stal veľmi zamestnaný človek. Doktor Watson vo svojich zápiskoch uchoval podrobnú dokumentáciu o prípadoch, ktoré spolu riešili, a ako sám otvorene priznáva, z toho obrovského množstva je preňho mimoriadne ťažké vybrať tie, ktoré si zaslúžia zverejnenie. Podkladom pre drobné príbehy v zbierke poviedok Návrat Sherlocka Holmesa sa nakoniec stali kauzy, ktoré vzbudili záujem ani nie tak brutalitou zločinu, tvoriaceho ich jadro, ale skôr dômyselnosťou a dramatickosťou ich riešenia.

    HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics. ‘In calling Moriarty a criminal you are uttering libel in the eyes of the law-and there lie the glory and the wonder of it! The greatest schemer of all time, the organizer of every deviltry, the controlling brain of the underworld, a brain which might have made or marred the destiny of nations – that's the man!'First published as a serialisation in the Strand magazine between 1914 and 1915, The Valley of Fear depicts Sherlock Holmes in his very first brush with his arch nemesis, Professor Moriarty. Summoned by one of Moriarty's henchmen to a mysterious manor house, Holmes and Watson find themselves confronted by the scene of a brutal murder. But the brilliant Holmes soon reveals that there is much more to this case than first meets the eye…The fourth and final Sherlock Holmes novel, ‘The Valley of Fear' will undoubtedly delight fans of Conan Doyle's legendary detective and his faithful sidekick Watson.

    8 povídek. Keď jedného hmlistého večera byt na Baker Street 221B navštívi Sherlockov brat, je to, ako by sa jedna z planét vychýlila zo svojej predurčenej dráhy. Mycroft Holmes totiž neopúšťa svoje kruhy len tak pre nič za nič. Disponuje tým najprecíznejším a najsystematickejším mozgom, aký si len možno predstaviť, a tiež rovnakými schopnosťami, aké Sherlock využíva pri svojej detektívnej práci. A predsa tento muž, ktorého špecializáciou je vševedúckosť, burcuje Sherlocka do akcie v záležitosti mimoriadne dôležitého medzinárodného problému. A tak sa opäť Sherlock spolu s Watsonom vrhajú po stopách zločinu. A nielen raz, ale osemkrát, pretože práve toľko je v tejto zbierke poviedok, prípadov najslávnejšieho súkromného detektíva všetkých čias.

    Kdesi v útrobách banky Cox a spol., sídliacej na Charing Cross, sa nachádza putovaním po svete obšúchaná a otlčená plechová škatuľa, ktorá je na veku označená mojím menom – MUDr. John H. Watson, veterán indického armádneho zboru. Je v nej plno papierov a takmer všetky sú to záznamy prípadov, ktoré ilustrovali, aké zvláštne problémy musel pán Sherlock Holmes v rôznych časových úsekoch riešiť. Keď uvážime, že pán Sherlock Holmes sa aktívnej praxi venoval celých dvadsaťtri rokov a mne sa naskytla príležitosť spolupracovať s ním sedemnásť rokov, je zrejmé, že k dispozícii mám množstvo materiálu vhodného na spracovanie.Z tohto archívu, Archívu Sherlocka Holmesa, vám prinášame výber detektívnych poviedok. V nich opísané príbehy sa udiali prevažne na sklonku kariéry svetoznámeho detektíva. Vychádza v preklade Jána Kamenistého a s ilustráciami Jula Nagya.

    Arthur Conan Doyle napísal viac diel o svojom detektívovi, ako obsahuje tradičný "kánon“ Sherlocka Holmesa, t. j. kompletné dielo zahŕňajúce štyri romány a 56 poviedok, ktoré sme vydali v predchádzajúcich zväzkoch edície.Sherlock Holmes je postava, ktorá vedie pestrý literárny život a príležitostne si odskočí rozdať pár rád pri detektívnom pátraní v iných poviedkach, pátra po zločine na javisku v divadle, ako na starého známeho naňho narazíme pri čítaní eseje alebo novinového článku z pera A. C. Doylea. Všetky tieto nekanonické diela sa medzi holmesológmi označujú ako Apokryfy. Apokryfy Sherlocka Holmesa sú staro-nové, objavné a autentické sherlockovské zážitky určené pre všetkých holmesológov, fanúšikov a každého, kto si obľúbil postavu veľkého detektíva.

    V príbehoch o slávnom detektívovi z Baker Street 221 B v Londýne a jeho spoločníkovi sa odráža magický svet Sherlocka Holmesa a Dr. Johna H. Watsona. Prvýkrát sa stretávajú v Štúdii v červenom (1887). V novele Pes baskervillský (1902) sa odohráva zločin na slatinách a Baskervillskom zámku. Tento príbeh sir Doyle začal písať potom, ako v poviedke Posledný príbeh (1893) na jej konci zahynul Holmes v súboji s profesorom Moriartym a na veľký tlak čitateľov sa rozhodol v písaní pokračovať. Nad rodom Baskervillovcov visí zlovestná kliatba, ktorá sa prenáša cez viacero generácií a končí sa tajomnou smrťou jedného z posledných – sira Charlesa Baskervilla. Novela Údolie hrôzy (1915) je posledná, ktorú sir Doyle o Holmesovi napísal. Udalosti v nej opísané majú reálny základ. V roku 1875 rozdrvili pinkertonovci veľký rozvetvený klan írskych prisťahovalcov v Spojených štátoch. Jeden z detektívov sa votrel do ich zločineckej organizácie a jeho svedectvo na súde priviedlo na popravisko viacerých sprisahancov.

    "My dear Watson, Professor Moriarty is not a man who lets the grass grow under his feet. I went out about mid-day to transact some business in Oxford Street. As I passed the corner which leads from Bentinck Street on to the Welbeck Street crossing a two-horse van furiously driven whizzed round and was on me like a flash. I sprang for the foot-path and saved myself by the fraction of a second. The van dashed round by Marylebone Lane and was gone in an instant. I kept to the pavement after that, Watson, but as I walked down Vere Street a brick came down from the roof of one of the houses, and was shattered to fragments at my feet. I called the police and had the place examined.
