Doyle revolutionises the Sherlock formula by placing the backstory at the start of the book rather than the end. We get to spend more time following the case ourselves that way, in meeting the wider cast, following evidence and making deductions along with Watson.

Fun book, interesting to read an older book. It’s quite slow in the middle but it picks up at the very end.
