A great introduction to classic British mysteries, this volume contains the first books that feature two of the most famous detectives in history: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's A Study in Scarlet introduces Sherlock Holmes (and his sidekick Dr. John Watson), and Dame Agatha Christie's The Mysterious Affair at Styles introduces Hercules Poirot. With a fresh cover treatment, this British mystery primer will surely attract a new generation of mystery readers, especially those who are only familiar with the recent incarnations of the Sherlock Holmes character on the big and small screens.
