Le signe des quatre
(Author) Arthur Conan DoyleCurieux personnage que ce Sherlock ! Il n'hésite pas à s'entraîner en chambre de tir au revolver, reçoit des gens indésirables et se livre à des expériences scientifiques quelque peu malodorantes. Vraiment, quel locataire déplorable. Reste que ce même homme fréquente aussi les altesses royales, notamment le roi de Bohême, ou encore la belle Irène Adler, aventurière de haut vol, qui demeurera à jamais son modèle féminin. Et ce joli monde lui donne bien du fil à retordre... Au point qu'on le retrouve presque mourant. Excès de travail ou génie de la ruse ? A l'article de la mort, le grand Sherlock étonne encore...
