Publisher's Synopsis
The famous detective Sherlock Holmes always insists that love gets in the way of cold reason. That is why he is wary of all women... except one! In this famous tale, skilfully and faithfully adapted to the easy-to-read format, we learn how the beautiful opera singer Irene Adler outwits the celebrated detective and thwarts his carefully laid plan to assist an important royal figure. All the classic ingredients of a Sherlock Holmes adventure are here: a race against time, disguise, calm reasoning, sharp insight - and that unexpected twist at the end!
