偵探、推理小說的世界級經典，推理迷必備的案頭書籍風靡全球，讀者無數的神探福爾摩斯百年獨占推理小說中《聖經》地位不可動搖英國偵探小說之父柯南‧道爾經典之作一條謀殺的紅線，穿過了灰暗的生活霧團，我們的職責就是要解開它，剝離它，將它一點一滴地展示給人們。――血字的研究 A Study In Scarlet英國著名小說家毛姆：「和柯南‧道爾所寫的《福爾摩斯探案集》相比，沒有任何偵探小說曾享有那麼大的聲譽。」高個子中年男人，身材瘦削，極具穿透力的雙眼下是獨具特點的鷹鉤鼻子。福爾摩斯身披風衣，頭戴獵帽，經常帶著雨傘急匆匆地走在倫敦的霧雨天氣中。福爾摩斯誕生至今已有一百多年的歷史，被譽為「英國偵探小說之父」的著名作家柯南‧道爾在一八八七年為世界塑造了這個冷靜、智慧、勇敢，甚至可以說是完美的神探形象。從此，大偵探福爾摩斯成了家喻戶曉、令人難以忘懷的經典小說人物。福爾摩斯的每個探案故事都是常人難以解開的犯罪之謎，其情節驚險曲折，往往在最後關頭才真相大白。作者筆下的福爾摩斯可以通過細節進行精確觀察，從一個人的外貌和穿著就可以判斷出一個人的職業習慣和嗜好。同時，福爾摩斯還能運用嚴密的推理方法，即使是隱藏在身邊的、偽裝得再逼真的狡猾罪犯都難以逃脫他鷹樣的目光。※「福爾摩斯小知識」：福爾摩斯與華生的住處：貝克街221號B貝克街221號B是小說中所設定的福爾摩斯寓所及偵探事務所地址。今日的貝克街221號B則是福爾摩斯紀念館。首次出現於《血字的研究》貝克街是真實存在於倫敦的街道，但221號B在小說連載的時候尚是個不存在的虛構地址，直到1930年才成為可用地址，一開始是一家金融機構所進駐，導致公司職員在多數時間常常都會收到指名給福爾摩斯的信件。1990年後，現今該地址分配給福爾摩斯紀念館使用。
沒有科學解不開的謎團！觀察推理 X 動腦解謎 X 趣味漫畫快跟著福爾摩斯運用「科學搜查」，揭開犯罪真相，揪出真兇！福爾摩斯回來了！屋裡一具沒有傷口的屍體，卻遺留下斑斑血跡，以及寫在牆上的血字——RACHE……擁有天才頭腦、敏銳觀察力的福爾摩斯，將利用大量的科學知識和科學調查，透過犯罪現場的觀察和推理，揭開隱藏在血跡中的祕密！本次經典案件案件一：血字的研究 案件二：花斑帶的祕密 案件三：紅髮會《科學神探福爾摩斯》系列，清楚地說明了為什麼需要科學搜查。主角福爾摩斯利用科學的方法，重現了犯罪現場發生的事，並正確解讀犯人的行動。希望大家也能認真學習自己感興趣的領域，打造壞蛋無法涉足的正義社會！ ——權日勇（韓國No.1的犯罪側寫師兼犯罪學博士）

'Doctor Watson, Mr Sherlock Holmes' - The most famous introduction in the history of crime fiction takes place in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's A Study in Scarlet, bringing together Sherlock Holmes, the master of science detection, and John H. Watson, the great detective's faithful chronicler. This novel not only establishes the magic of the Holmes myth but also provides the reader with a dramatic adventure yarn which ranges from the foggy, gas-lit streets of London to the burning plains of Utah. The Sign of the Four, the second Holmes novel, presents the detective with one of his greatest challenges. The theft of the Agna treasure in India forms a catalyst for treachery, deceit and murder. With these two classic novels, A Study in Scarlet and The Sign of the Four, you have the brilliant foundation of the Sherlock Holmes canon. Reading pleasure rarely comes any finer.
In 'A Study in Scarlet', the debut for the iconic sleuth Sherlock Holmes and his trusty assistant Dr. John Watson, a body is found in a room in Brixton with the German word for revenge, 'Rache' scrawl
