The game is afoot…

Evelyn Waugh noted that the world created by P.G. Wodehouse remains timeless, as it was never part of reality to begin with. Similarly, the stories in Arthur Conan Doyle’s detective series, featuring Hugh Bonneville as the narrator, are ageless. Each story starts when a troubled person comes to Holmes’s residence at Baker Street. The root of their distress is uncovered through logical reasoning, pipe-smoking, violin playing, and occasionally, high-level drugs. This collection begins with “The Adventure of the Speckled Band,” which has kept this author awake since Harold Macmillan was in office as prime minister. DAVID HEPWORTH

Evelyn Waugh pointed out that the universe crafted by P.G. Wodehouse will never become outdated because it was never real to begin with. In a similar vein, Arthur Conan Doyle’s detective stories, narrated here by Hugh Bonneville, are eternal. Each story initiates when someone in distress visits Holmes at his Baker Street dwelling. The cause of their distress is eventually discovered through logic, pipe-smoking, violin playing, and on rare occasions, Class A substances. This series kicks off with “The Adventure of the Speckled Band,” which has kept me awake since Harold Macmillan was serving as prime minister. DAVID HEPWORTH
