Cliché, olé

The books of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson include a lot of amusing clichés. What I liked about this novel "The Sign of Four" is not only the interesting story itself that in a (usual) twist reveals the criminal and their motive. The novel also has real history in its background and made me read a lot of Wikipedia. You need time though.

Mucha aventura y poco misterio

De las historias largas que he leído de Holmes es la que menos me ha atrapado. Es una aventura muy movida, exótica y enrevesada, pero hay poco del misterio y deducción que siempre esperamos de él. En todo caso, no te aburrirás.
