Publisher Description
In "The Adventure of the Three Garridebs," Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are faced with a very unusual case. A certain Mr. Nathan Garrideb, living a reclusive life in London, has been visited by a Mr. John Garrideb from America. The American explains that a late eccentric millionaire of the same name as the two of them has left a will with a most peculiar bequest. He will receive one-third of the entire fortune if he can find two other men whose name is also Garrideb. Now that the two have made contact, they only have to track down a third Garrideb, and each will receive $5 million. Sherlock Holmes listens to the story of the first two Garridebs and realizes that something is amiss…but what? With Dr. Watson in tow, he sets out to unravel the mystery.

"This is a really nice introduction for younger readers to the Sherlock Holmes stories. It is a nice combination of graphic novel and abridged text. The art, characterization rather than realistic, works."
— Matthew (4 out of 5 stars)

About Arthur Conan Doyle
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) was born of Irish parentage in Scotland. He studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh, but he also had a passion for storytelling. His first book introduced that prototype of the modern detective in fiction, Sherlock Holmes. Despite the immense popularity Holmes gained throughout the world, Doyle was not overly fond of the character and preferred to write other stories. Eventually popular demand won out and he continued to satisfy readers with the adventures of the legendary sleuth. He also wrote historical romances and made two essays into pseudoscientific fantasy: The Lost World and The Poison Belt.
