From country mansions to opium dens, from the squalid backstreets of London Bridge to the leafy avenues of Chelsea, The Adventure of the Six Napoleons and Other Cases casts Sherlock Holmes in some of his most thrilling and wickedly clever adventures.

Here six Napoleonic busts are violently destroyed throughout London; a strange, yellow face appears at a cottage window then mysteriously vanishes; dark horrors lurk beneath copper beeches; a man with a twisted lip hides a shameful secret; and, of course, the great detective dazzles with his ingenious mind. --back cover
