A study in scarlet is the introductory novel by Sir Arthur Conan
Doyle which primarily brings up his most celebrated literary character,
Sherlock Holmes along with his comrade Dr. Watson with much delight to the
readers around the world for whom the word spying became tantamount to Sherlock
Holmes.
I am a self confessed Holmes fan evident from the fact that
my first book at a very young age was the Complete
works of Arthur Conan Doyle, the copy of which I still have as a prized
possession.
The plot is simple, a murder mystery and how it is to be
solved. What is fascinating rather is the impeccable description of characters
as well as the situations as the story unfolds.
Some literary works should be the constant companions of
readers and Sherlock Holmes is one of the best literary buddy one could ask for.
It’s a *****5 stars for me.
