What is The Hound of the Baskervilles Sherlock Holmes?
It's the fifth Sherlock Holmes book. It's about a very rich man named Charles Baskerville who died of fright, apparently. His nephew, Henry Baskerville, is to come to England to claim his inheritance and take over the estate. There's a family curse about a demon dog who terrorizes every Baskerville, and it's said that the dog was what frightened Charles so much that he died. Holmes is too busy to go out to the moor to do the case, so Watson is sent instead.
How many times did Sherlock Holmes appear in serious crimes?
Of the sixty stories, there are eight where no crime is committed. In my opinion, of the 52 remaining cases, these are the crimes ranked by frequency of the most serious crime: Murder (30), Theft (6), Attempted murder (4), Fraud (4), Abduction (3), Blackmail (2), Attempted robbery (1), Espionage (1), Treason (1). I hasten to add that in many of these cases the crimes would have escalated without Holmes' intervention. Of course, there are those un-chronicled cases; I believe Holmes says in 'The Hound of the Baskervilles' that there are some 500 cases of capital importance which he handled, and there are over 100 that Watson mentions with few details given.
