The Adventure of Wisteria Lodge By Arthur Conan Doyle

Sherlock's client Mr. John Scott Eccles is a suspect in the murder of Mr. Aloysius Garcia of Wisteria Lodge, whose house Eccles visited the previous night on his invitation. The cook and servant fled after their master's death. Sherlock, yet, is of the opinion that Garcia invited Eccles because he had a criminal enterprise and desired to establish an alibi. As Sherlock and Inspector Baynes proceed in their investigation, they come across Old Jacobean Grange of High Gables less than half a mile across from the scene of the tragedy. There they find Mr. Henderson, his children, their English governess, Miss Burnet and his friend and secretary Mr. Lucas. They also discover the secret of the Tiger of San Pedro. What is it? Are these clues beads on the same necklace that will help Sherlock unravel the mystery? Or are they scattered enough to deviate him from his path?

His Last Bow is a collection of seven Sherlock Holmes stories (eight in American editions) by Arthur Conan Doyle, as well as the title of one of the stories in that collection. Originally published in 1917, it contains the various Holmes stories published between 1908 and 1913, as well as the one-off title story from 1917. The collection was originally called Reminiscences of Sherlock Holmes and did not contain the actual story His Last Bow, which appeared later, after the full-length The Valley of Fear was published. However later editions added it and changed the title. Some recent complete editions have restored the earlier title. When the Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes were published in the USA for the first time, the publishers believed "The Adventure of the Cardboard Box" was too scandalous for the American public, since it dealt with the theme of adultery. As a result, this story was not published in the USA until many years later, when it was added to His Last Bow. Even today, most American editions of the canon include it with His Last Bow, while most British editions keep the story in its original place in The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes.
