A Study in Scarlet

Book • 2016
A Study in Scarlet is the first detective novel by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, introducing the iconic characters Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson.

The story begins with Watson, a veteran of the war in Afghanistan, meeting Holmes and becoming his flatmate at 221B Baker Street.

They are drawn into a murder investigation, which Holmes solves using his extraordinary deductive skills.

The novel is divided into two parts: the first part takes place in London, while the second part is set in Utah and provides the backstory of the victims.

The novel was originally published in Beeton’s Christmas Annual in 1887 and later in novel form in 1888.
