theereader 's review for:

The Sign of Four by Arthur Conan Doyle
4.0

An amazing thrilling mystery with more action than the first!

Yet with multiple boring chapters and many racist statements (which I can forgive because of the times), the novel drops down to a 4 star instead of a five.

One silver lining to this novel is Watson's romance with Miss Morstan, one thing Doyle can do effectively is mysteries and romance.
