A Double Barrelled Detective Story

Více o knize

Set in the American West, this short story features Sherlock Holmes embroiled in two revenge-driven plots. The first involves a wealthy young woman mistreated by her husband, Jacob Fuller, against her father's wishes. The second arc follows Fetlock Jones, Holmes' nephew, who kills his employer, Flint Buckner, in a dramatic explosion at a mining camp. Through these intertwining narratives, Twain satirizes the conventions of the mystery genre, blending humor with a critique of societal norms.
