Welcome to Raven's Readings. I'm reading from The Sign of the Four, written by Arthur Conan Doyle in 1890. This novel features his character, Sherlock Holmes, a detective who excels in observation, deduction, logic, and forensics. Assisting Holmes is Doctor John Watson. The Sherlock stories are narratives written from the POV of Watson, as he attempts to record and publicize Sherlock's work. This novel is the second in the series.
Last chapter, Holmes and Watson. along with the dog Toby, were hot on the trail of some criminals. They hit a dead end when Toby followed a creosote trail through London and right to a barrel of the tarry goop. But Holmes will come up with a new plan.
