Note - You can read this as well as other posts here.

Welcome to Raven's Readings. I'm reading from The Sign of the Four, written by Arthur Conan Doyle in 1890. This novel features his character, Sherlock Holmes, a detective who excels in observation, deduction, logic, and forensics. Assisting Holmes is Doctor John Watson, a former army surgeon, retired with a leg injury. The Sherlock stories are narratives written from the POV of Watson, as he attempts to record and publicize Sherlock's work. This novel is the second in the series.

In the first chapter, we meet Holmes and Watson, and see Sherlock's deductive skills in action.

I do readings twice a week, on Tuesdays and Fridays, so this collection should take about six weeks. Please subscribe to my Substack newsletter, you'll be notified of my updates as soon as they are ready. If you enjoy this reading, or have other classics you'd like to hear, leave me a comment.
