Arthur Conan Doyle keeps coming up in recommendations. Where would people start with their books?

Ciaran, i have added a boost too. Would be interesting to see how it sits beside the other choices.

The Hound of the Baskervilles is one I am weighing up. I would like to see this in the six with a few very different choices around it.

Cian, i am following this thread for exactly that reason. Happy to hear a few different opinions.

For anyone considering The Hound of the Baskervilles: This would be a good change of pace from the things currently at the top of my list.
