Descriere
Several years after the mysterious disappearance of her father, Mary Morstan discovers an advertisement in a local paper requesting her own address. Her employer advises her to reveal it, and when she does she receives a valuable pearl by post.
Presented with these facts and little else, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson must unravel a mystery involving stolen treasure, political rebellion, India, and a pact made by four convicts, in Arthur Conan Doyle’s second Sherlock Holmes novel.
Review
Of all the Holmes stories it is The Sign of Four which remains persistently in my memory. -- Graham Greene
Sherlock Holmes is the very foundation stone of the edifice that is crime fiction. -- Times
[Holmes] is probably the only literary creation since the creations of Dickens which has really passed into the life and language of the people. -- G. K. Chesterton
