With cohost Monica Schmidt and special guest Leslie S. Klinger
The Sign of Four was first published in Lippincott’s Monthly Magazine in February 1890 in both Philadelphia and London. Sherlock is high on cocaine until Mary Morstan arrives with a “singular case” for him to solve. Watson is more interested in Mary than in finding the Great Agra Treasure. Leslie Klinger joins us to talk about annotated editions of Sherlock Holmes.
