Sherlock Holmes: Three Tales of Avarice

By Arthur Conan Doyle

Book Overview

Avarice gets top billing in "The Adventure of the Priory School," "The Adventure of the Red-Headed League," and "The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle," three masterfully crafted cases from one of the greatest mystery writers of all, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and starring that most celebrated sleuth, Sherlock Holmes.
