Notes:
Welcome back to our channel! 
It was a challenging chapter for us. Lots of emotions and actions! We hope you enjoy Richard's take on this classic detective story.


About “A Study in Scarlet”:
“A Study in Scarlet” is not just a murder mystery, but also the story of how the friendship of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson gets started, and that makes it so interesting to read for Holmes fans! 

The story consists of two parts. In the first part, Conan Doyle writes about how Holmes and Watson meet and their intimate friendship evolves, by being involved in a murder case together. It is written in an exciting fashion to draw you in. By contrast, part two has a completely different color. It feels like a different story at the beginning, and then slowly connects into current events…

About the illustrations:
Since this was the first Sherlock Holmes story where the characters were introduced, there are no illustrations existing done by Sidney Paget, like all the other Holmes stories. We added some of Paget’s images as a base and created some more.
