Sir Charles Baskerville is dead. His body was discovered on the grounds of his Devonshire estate, face frozen in fright, not far from the footprints of a large beast. The cause of death has been determined to be a heart attack, but family legend tells another tale, and Detective Sherlock Holmes is determined to uncover the truth.

So whodunit on the foggy moors of Baskerville Hall? In one of literature's greatest original page-turners, the answer is a classic.

I always love Simon Vance as a narrator. He has a very pleasant voice and does a good job at distinguishing between characters. However, there was a single chapter where he seemed to forget that Sir Henry didn’t have an English accent - it threw me off while listening. Otherwise, though, a very enjoyable listen. I hadn’t revisited this story in a very long time and I’m glad I decided to listen to it this time around!

Great narration of a fantastic story!

Great narration with perfect pacing. A must for any Sherlock Holmes fan who wants to enjoy one of the classics.

A classic tale, well executed

Very enjoyable to listen to while walking around the track, Arthur Conan Doyle was adept a describing the characters and the setting. There is the supernatural element which adds to the mystery. Is the family curse real or just superstitious gossip of the neighborhood? Then there is the escaped convict subplot.
