In a heavily mortgaged country house, an heiress’s sinister guardian attempts to trap her in a bedroom with a rare Indian swamp adder—a murder averted only by the timely intervention of Sherlock Holmes. Five months after the events of The Adventure of the Speckled Band, Holmes and Watson are called back to Stoke Moran by a frightened gypsy who claims that the viper has gotten loose again. Holmes is unsure which poses a greater danger: the rumored snake, or the possibility that the gypsy is telling lies.
In these dozen tales, short story master Edward D. Hoch resurrects the most brilliant mind in the history of detective fiction. In the style of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Holmes tangles with circus tigers, Druidic curses, and a pair of Christmas killings. Here is the finest detective of the Victorian age—recreated by one of the greatest mystery writers of the twentieth century.

霍克的福尔摩斯同人
评分爱德华·霍克创作的福尔摩斯同人短篇集,然而无论从文风、案件类型还是人物塑造都有别于原作,属于随便套上哪个侦探的名字故事都能成立的作品,未能体现出同人的精髓,读完略失望。
评分霍克的老福仿作,有几篇如果不是挂上老福的名字,我还以为在读山姆霍桑。尽管如此,能再次读到霍克真是太好了
评分霍克的福尔摩斯同人合集。整体质量中规中矩,好几篇挡住人名分明就仍是山姆医生故事而非歇洛克的冒险。
