I’ve read this book more than once. It’s a perfect mixture of suspense and mystery detection. The hound of Baskerville is the third novel of the four Sherlock Holmes short novels. It’s inspired by mythological hell-hounds, said to roam the moors of the western England. Sir Henry Baskerville, a young man who arrived from North America to inherit the estate of his uncle who died suddenly seeks the protection of Sherlock Holmes. Sir Charles died in terror from an unknown enemy meanwhile Mr. Henry himself is receiving mysterious threats related to Baskerville family curse. The novel also involve a maiden, an ancestor and a hound. Sherlock Holmes being busy in other works send Mr. Watson to keep watch over Sir Henry and tell him to keep reporting him whatever he’s encountering. The story’s casting is outstanding which consists of Dr Mortimer ( country practitioner) , the Barrymores who has been the servants to the Baskerville for ages, Stapleton and his sister with whom Mr Henry fell in love with. Meanwhile a murderer has escaped from the nearby prison and is loose on the moor and no one can forget the spine chilling howls. Surprise deductions and terrifying moments happens infront of Holmes brings things to a conclusion.According to me it’s one of the best book having such an interesting characters. The readers will keep getting surprised about what’s going to happen next and trust me your deduction will be proven wrong by the book because the ultimate conclusion or the climax of the novel is beyond the reader’s imagination.
