The final volume of Sherlock Holmes short stories, and easily the weakest. I think Doyle just wrote this for the money. Some were good, but most were just 'meh'

I enjoyed this collection,  but I felt it wasn't as good as the previous short story collections.  Especially,  the first ones, but the stories got better in the latter half.

Holmes and Watson's adventure are always a delight to read.
