A Sherlock Holmes investigation shaped by a family legend

A centuries-old tale of a monstrous hound shadows the Baskerville family, and Sherlock Holmes is drawn into the question of whether the legend explains the danger facing its last surviving heir, Sir Henry. Holmes sends Dr. Watson to the family estate to investigate, where a escaped convict and beast-like footprints add further complications. The story brings together detective work, a threatened family inheritance, and a supernatural-sounding mystery. This Chiltern hardcover edition presents Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic novel in a format described by the publisher as featuring layered, detailed, colorful covers.

Book overview

Your favorite classic titles in a way you have never seen them before; the tactile layers, fine details and beautiful colors of these remarkable covers make these titles feel extra special and will look striking on any shelf.


The Hound of the Baskervilles, the most famous Sherlock Holmes novel, tells the story of the famous detective as he gains interest in a centuries-old legend in which every generation of the wealthy Baskerville family is eventually killed by a monstrous hound. Suspecting there is more to the story than meets the eye, he sends Dr. Watson to the estate to investigate. Sir Henry, the only Baskerville left, is grateful for his help. But when a crazed convict escapes and footprints from a beast are found, Baskerville wonders if Watson will be enough.

This book has a matching lined journal (sold separately). They make a great gift when paired together but are also just as beautiful on their own.
