Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

"With wit and careful analysis, Bayard makes a convincing case...This slim yet satisfying inquiry will make readers eager to pick up the classic mystery and test Bayard's methods for themselves."--Los Angeles Times

In his brilliant reinvestigation of the classic case of The Hound of the Baskervilles, Pierre Bayard uses the last thoughts of the murder victim as his key to unravel the mystery, leading the reader to the astonishing conclusion that Holmes--and, in fact, Arthur Conan Doyle--got things all wrong. Part intellectual entertainment, part love letter to crime novels, and part crime novel in itself,Sherlock Holmes Was Wrong turns one of our most beloved stories delightfully on its head.
