La vallee de la peur
(Author) Arthur Conan DoyleSherlock Holmes vient à peine de déchiffrer un message codé le prévenant qu'un certain Douglas, de Birlstone Manor House, est en danger, qu'il apprend par l'inspecteur MacDonald de Scotland Yard que Douglas vient d'être sauvagement assassiné. Grâce au signataire du message, Sherlock Holmes sait que, derrière cette affaire, se trouve son ennemi juré : le professeur Moriarty, criminel génial et machiavélique. Accompagné de son fidèle Watson, Holmes se précipite à Birlstone. Par la richesse de son intrigue et de son action, La Vallée de la peur, où l'on voit Sherlock Holmes se mesurer avec Moriarty, adversaire en tous points à sa hauteur, est sans doute le meilleur roman de Conan Doyle.
