À propos de cet audio
Dr. Mortimer looked strangely at us for an instant and his voice sank almost to a whisper as he answered, “Mr. Holmes, they were the footprints of a gigantic hound.”
The “luminous, ghostly, and spectral” hound of family legend has been seen roaming the moors at night. Sir Charles Baskerville has recently died, and it appears that the new baronet, Sir Henry, has inherited not only the vast wealth and property of his family but also a terrible destiny. To this Holmes ominously observes, “It’s an ugly business, Watson, an ugly dangerous business and the more I see of it the less I like it.”
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930), born of Irish parentage in Scotland, studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh but also had a passion for storytelling. His first book introduced that prototype of the modern detective in fiction, Sherlock Holmes. He also wrote historical romances and made two essays into pseudoscientific fantasy: The Lost World and The Poison Belt.

“Arguably both the best Sherlock Holmes story in the canon and one of the classic alltime mystery novels... Doyle parlays his interest in the occult with keen scientific detection.” (Library Journal)
