An immersive reading of the complete novel.
Read along, word by word.
The Hound of the Baskervilles (1902) sends Sherlock Holmes out of London to investigate a death on the Devon moors, where the seventeenth-century legend of a monstrous black hound has reawakened with the killing of Sir Charles Baskerville. Dr. Watson keeps watch over the new young master, Sir Henry, as the case unfolds toward a final night on the mire. One of the most celebrated detective novels in English literature, and the book that brought Holmes back to readers after Doyle had tried to kill him off.
