Valoa ja varjoja sisältää Arthur Conan Doylen varhaisia rikoskertomuksia vuosilta 1881-1891. Ne valottavat kirjailijan ensimmäisiä askelia aiheen parissa ja kohti hänen kestävintä luomustaan, Sherlock Holmesia. Tarinoissa esiintyy pari amatöörietsivää, mutta mukaan mahtuu myös kansainväliseen salaliittoon tempautuvia sivullisia, sarjamurhaajia, muinaisten druidien perillisiä ja mahdollisesti jotain yliluonnollisempaakin. Kertomukset ovat yhtä lukuun ottamatta aiemmin suomentamattomia. Teoksessa on suomentaja Mikael Luovan esipuhe.

A classic ghost story illustrated by acclaimed cartoonist, Seth.The Pole-Star's voyage comes to a halt after becoming trapped in the arctic ice, threatening the lives of its crew.

The writer of several hundred stories and novels, English author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle began his writing career in 1879. While he introduced the world to his most famous character, Sherlock Holmes, in the 1887 novel "A Study in Scarlet", it would not be until the 1891 publication of "A Scandal in Bohemia" that his illustrative career in writing would truly begin. With this Sherlock Holmes short story, the imagination of the reading public was instantly captured and would propel Doyle forever into the annals of English literature. Of the fifty-six Sherlock Holmes stories that Doyle would end up writing the final twelve were collected in a volume entitled "The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes". First published in 1927, "The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes" collects together stories that were originally published in "Strand Magazine" between October of 1921 and March 1927. While some critics have labeled these additions as lesser entries in the canon of Sherlock Holmes, others have viewed them as evidence of a writer struggling to find a new narrative style. Regardless of any critic's opinion, no collection of Sherlock Holmes stories would be complete without these final contributions by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.

The Hound of the Baskervilles is a thrilling story set in England's wild countryside. Sherlock Holmes steps out of his 221B Baker Street apartment and goes up against his most fiendish adversary yet.This edition of the Hound of the Baskervilles has been adapted for intermediate level students as well as high school students and is intended to be used as a novel study.

The plot of the novel is based very loosely on the real-life activities of the Molly Maguires and, particularly, of Pinkerton agent James McParland.The novel is divided into two parts: in the first, Holmes investigates an apparent murder and discovers that the body belongs to another man; and in the second, the story of the man originally thought to have been the victim is told.

This, the first Sherlock Holmes novel, includes a long section giving the background for the crime being investigated-a lurid tale of murder and forced marriage inspired by the anti-Mormon literature common in Victorian Britain. As a back-handed recognition of this connection to Mormonism, this edition is in the Deseret Alphabet, a phonetic alphabet for English developed in the Utah portrayed in the book.This is the first full-length novel published in the Deseret Alphabet and the first book published in the Deseret Alphabet since the 1860's.
