Sinossi
William Collins Books and Decca Records are proud to present ARGO Classics, a historic catalogue of classic fiction read by some of the world’s most renowned voices. Originally released as vinyl records, these expertly remastered stories are now available to download for the first time. Is the world’s most famous detective on his deathbed? When Dr Watson finds Sherlock Holmes wasting away from a rare tropical disease, he must act fast if he is to save the life of his best friend. Sherlock Holmes, of course, may well have one more trick up his sleeve… Full of twists and turns, Arthur Conan Doyle’s atmospheric and gripping short story is brought vividly to life by Robert Hardy, known to many for playing Cornelius Fudge in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. The private and traditional nature of the mystery is further emphasised as the urban setting becomes a playground for thrillers. Top investigators are drawn into the medical enigma that threatens the life of the world's most famous detective. For fans of Jules Verne (Around the World in Eighty Days), Emily Brontë (Wuthering Heights), Cgp Books (GCSE English Shakespeare Text Guide), Jane Austen (Mansfield Park), and Mary Shelley (Frankenstein).
