These eclectic, captivating tales dealing with topics such as mysterious jungles in the sky, seventeenth-century torture techniques, an enigmatic Brazilian cat and a train mysteriously disappearing between two stations showcases Arthur Conan Doyle at his creative best. While he is now mostly associated with his Sherlock Holmes stories, the prolific Arthur Conan Doyle was also celebrated for the many masterful tales he wrote outside of that cycle. In this collection, published in 1922, he compiled various pieces of short fiction which fall into the categories of horror and detective fiction, two genres for which he has become a byword.Contains: The Horror of the Heights, The Leather Funnel, The New Catacomb, The Case of Lady Sannox, The Terror of Blue John Gap, The Brazilian Cat, The Lost Special, The Beetle-Hunter, The Man with the Watches, The Japanned Box, The Black Doctor, The Jew's Breastplate, The Nightmare Room.Alma Classics is committed to make available the widest range of literature from around the globe.
