'I believe that I am one of the most long-suffering of mortals; but I'll admit that I
was annoyed at the sardonic interruption. “Really, Holmes,” said I severely, you

This volume also contains The Valley of Fear, a dark, powerful tale in which Holmes confronts the evil Professor Moriarty once more. With an Afterword by David Stuart Davies, a Fellow of the Royal Literary Fund, and an authority on Sherlock Holmes. He has written the Afterwords for all the Collector's Library Holmes volumes.
