Sherlock Holmes - A Study In Scarlet

In the first of all the Sherlock Holmes stories, Dr. John Watson,
discharged from military service after suffering severe wounds,
is at a loose end until a chance encounter leads him to take
rooms with a remarkable young man.  The arrogant,
irracible Sherlock Holmes is a master chemist, a talented
musician and an expert on all aspects of crime.  And
when Watson is drawn into the investigation of a bizarre murder
in which Holmes is involved, he is unaware that it is the
beginning of the most famous partnership in the history of
criminal detection.
