    About this audiobook

    Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was the preeminent figure in late 19th-century detective fiction. A physician by profession, he soon found such popularity as a writer of detective stories that his writing was far more profitable than his medical practice.

    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 millionnaire 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.

    Arthur Conan Doyle

    Arthur Conan Doyle was born in 1859. He trained to be a doctor at Edinburgh University and eventually set up a medical practice in Southsea. During the quiet periods between patients, he turned his hand to writing, producing historical novels such as Micah Clarke and adventure yarns including The Lost World, as well as four novels and fifty-six stories involving his most celebrated creations, Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. Doyle was knighted in 1902. In later life he devoted much of his time to his belief in Spiritualism, using his writing and celebrity as a means of providing funds to support activities in this field. He died in 1930.
