The Hound of the Baskervilles by Arthur Conan Doyle
3.0

3/5

I am quite disappointed as The Hound of the Baskervilles did not live up to its spooky fame (in my opinion).

Here, readers follow a Watson-centric mystery around the untimely deaths of the Baskervilles descendants. The moors, it is said, are haunted and the descendants of the Baskervilles line are plagued by an ancient hound. Sherlock is indisposed by several other cases so sends Watson to liaise with the "next" victim and solve the case before it's too late!

While I loved [b:A Study in Scarlet|102868|A Study in Scarlet (Sherlock Holmes, #1)|Arthur Conan Doyle|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1519031842s/102868.jpg|1997473], this case fell flat for me. Whether this was because I was listening to it too intermittently, or if it really was that boring it didn't capture my interest, I was left disappointed.
