This audio book was narrated in London by experienced British stage actor Robert Maskell at a voice recording studio renowned for high production values.

Throughout the 12 stories we see Holmes at his incisive and eccentric best. All groups within Victorian society feature, from European aristocrats to travelling Gypsies, mad doctors to innocent ladies. These are truly classic stories and a perfect introduction to the fascinating world of Sherlock Holmes.

    One bright day in December 2001, sixty-two-year-old Germaine Greer found herself confronted by an irresistible challenge in the shape of sixty hectares of dairy farm, one of many in southeast Queensland, Australia, which, after a century of logging, clearing, and downright devastation, had been abandoned to their fate. She didn’t think for a minute that by restoring the land she was saving the world. She was in search of heart’s ease. Beyond the acres of exotic pasture grass and soft weed and the impenetrable curtains of tangled lantana canes, there were macadamias dangling their strings of unripe nuts, black beans with red and yellow pea flowers growing on their branches…and the few remaining white beeches, stupendous trees up to 120 feet in height, logged out within forty years of the arrival of the first white settlers. To have turned down even a faint chance of bringing them back to their old haunts would have been to succumb to despair. Once the process of rehabilitation had begun, the chance proved to be a dead certainty. When the first replanting shot up to make a forest and rare caterpillars turned up to feed on the leaves of the new young trees, she knew beyond a doubt that at least here, biodepletion could be reversed. Greer describes herself as an old dog who succeeded in learning a load of new tricks, inspired and rejuvenated by her passionate love of Australia and of Earth, the most exuberant of small planets. ungekürzt.

    Six more classic mysteries solved by Sherlock Holmes. The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle: A precious stone with a history of murders and violence behind it is discovered in the crop of a Christmas goose after being reported stolen yet again, from its owner's jewel case, and the guilt is placed upon a plumber who protests his innocence. The Adventure of the Speckled Band: Sherlock Holmes investigates when a young woman's twin sister is mysteriously murdered in her locked bedroom, leaving in her dying words the only clue with which to begin: "band" and "speckled". The Adventure of the Engineer's Thumb: Hydraulic engineer Victor Hatherley arrives at 221-B in a state of hysteria, his thumb grossly amputated from his left hand. The Baker Street duo's foray into the case leads to characters and machinations even stranger and more threatening than the case's grotesque genesis. The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor: The groom loses his bride ten minutes after the wedding, and Sherlock Holmes has to find her. The Adventure of the Beryl Coronet: A banker accepts a priceless British artifact as collateral for a loan and it is promptly stolen from his home's safe. Circumstances point to the banker's son, who bitterly denies taking it. Holmes allows his investigation to follow the trail of evidence, come what may. The Adventure of the Copper Beeches: When a young governess, unemployed and desperate for a position, accepts a job with a couple living in a remote country home, her positive first impressions of the man and his family begin to change. With a mixture of fear and uncertainty, she asks Sherlock Holmes to investigate the increasingly disturbing events that have begun to unfold around her. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Vollständig überarbeitete, korrigierte und illustrierte Fassung Mit 52 Illustrationen Wie kann man Sherlock Holmes nicht kennen? Den berühmtesten Detektiv der Geschichte, der mit seinem messerscharfen Verstand und seiner Ermittlungsart als Vorlage für fast alle kriminalistischen Nachfolger diente. Hier lernen Sie das lesenswerte Original kennen. Dieser Band beinhaltet folgende Kurzgeschichten: "Das gesprenkelte Band" ("The Speckled Band"), 1892 Eine aufgeregte Frau bittet Holmes um Hilfe. Helen Stoner berichtet vom mysteriösen Tod ihrer Zwillingsschwester Julia. Nun fürchtet sie um ihr eigenes Leben. Wie wird sich Holmes dieses Geheimnisses annehmen? "Der Daumen des Ingenieurs" ("The Engineer's Thumb"), 1892 Der junge Ingenieur Victor Hatherley sucht Watsons Praxis auf, weil er während eines nächtlichen Vorfalls seinen Daumen verloren hat. Natürlich erregt er damit Holmes' Aufmerksamkeit, der sich nur zu gerne der Sache annimmt. "Der adlige Junggeselle" ("The Noble Batchelor"), 1892 Eine kurz nach der Trauung verschwundene Braut, ein Millionenvermögen und ein adliger Junggeselle sind die Zutaten in diesem Geheimnis, das darauf wartet, von Holmes und Watson gelöst zu werden. Sicherlich werden sie gemeinsam die Antworten finden, oder nicht? "Die Beryll-Krone" ("The Beryl Coronet"), 1892 An einem Wintermorgen erhalten Holmes und Watson Besuch von Alexander Holder, den Teilhaber einer großen Privatbank; dieser ist verzweifelt, weil ihm eine wertvolle Krone als Kreditpfand kurzfristig überlassen worden war. Sein stets in Geldnöten befindlicher Sohn wird nun verdächtigt, Juwelen aus dieser Krone herausgebrochen und gestohlen zu haben. "Silberstrahl" ("Silver Blaze"), 1892 Der berühmte Stallmeister und Trainer John Straker wird ermordet aufgefunden, gleichzeitig ist das in seiner Obhut befindliche, schnellste Rennpferd Englands mit Namen Silberstrahl verschwunden. Besteht ein Zusammenhang? Schnell fällt der Verdacht auf einen Widersacher - zu schnell womöglich? "Die Blutbuchen" ("The Copper Beeches"), 1892 Die junge Erzieherin Violet Hunter erhält ein verlockendes Stellenangebot. Dieses Angebot ist aber so gut, dass ihr Misstrauen geweckt wird, nicht zuletzt, weil man von ihr verlangt, sich die Haare kurz zu schneiden und während der Arbeit ein spezielles Kleid zu tragen. Keine Frage, dass Holmes dieser Geschichte auf den Grund gehen muss. 3. Auflage Umfang: 224 Normseiten bzw. 281 Buchseiten Null Papier Verlag - www-null-papier.de - www.facebook.de/null.papier.verlag
