The Last Sherlock Holmes Story


This is the book we are reading this week in our class of 4th ESO

( EFL 15-16 years), THE LAST SHERLOCK HOLMES STORY.

This book was written by Michael Dibdin and the plot is the following:


For fifty years after Dr Watson's death, a packet of papers, written by the doctor himself, lay hidden in a locked box. The papers contained an extraordinary report of the case of Jack the Ripper and the horrible murders in the East End of London in 1888. The detective, of course, was the great Sherlock Holmes - but why was the report kept hidden for so long? This is the story that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle never wrote. It is a strange and frightening tale . . .


I reccomend you to read the whole book and if you have doubts you can leave a comment.

  1. Oh my...I also love for my students to read Sherlock Holmes. This past year we read, the Short Stories one- from Penguin Readers. It was a great experience for my students. Thanks:)
