A review by lilith210
The Hound of the Baskervilles by Arthur Conan Doyle

4.0

Doyle has a way at cheating you out of all the clues, but leaving you loving him despite it. This book is a perfect example. You have no way of knowing that SPOILER ALERT Stapleton and his sister are actually husband and wife. You know he's a suspicious character, but the details can only be known by a clue that Watson gets that the reader could not research in the text. Still, you never hold it against Doyle, parially because he is an early creator of the genre and partially because he gives you enough clues to get the basic gist of where the story is going.
