Illustrated edition with original illustrations by Richard Gutschmidt, a famous German painter, book illustrator and graphic artist. A Study in Scarlet is the first Sherlock Holmes book written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
Watson meets the great detective Sherlock Holmes and together they solve a case of murder, in which Watson is amazed at Holmes science of deduction. The only clues are a wedding ring, a gold watch, a pocket edition of Boccaccios Decameron, and a word scrawled in blood on the wall.
