The Hound of the Baskervilles
by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
The third of four crime novels featuring detective Sherlock Holmes, The Hound of the Baskervilles was serialised in The Strand Magazine from August 1901 to April 1902. Set in England's West Country -- mostly in the Dartmoor in Devon region -- Sir Arthur Conan Doyle spins a tale of attempted murder inspired by the legend of a fearsome, diabolical hound.
