About this listen

This is a story from The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes VI collection.

In "The Final Problem", perhaps the greatest of the short stories of Sherlock Holmes, the English detective encounters his most formidable rival, Professor Moriarty. 'The Napoleon of Crime' is how Holmes describes his adversary to his faithful companion, Dr Watson, as they move to the ultimate confrontation at the Reichenbach Falls.

Editorial reviews

BBC radio star David Timson knows his Sherlock Holmes. He gives another stellar performance in The Adventure of the Resident Patient. In it, a doctor with an interesting business arrangement brings his problems to the famous sleuth. Winner of the Audio of the Year award, Timson performs this just about 40-minute audiobook with intelligence and clarity. He embodies Dr. Watson, the honorable Victorian gentleman. Sherlock fans will appreciate Timson's extensive contribution to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's body of work.

This was a great adaptation of one of the classic Sherlock stories. Pleasant to listen to, and not to drawn out. Well done!

Great reading of a Sherlock story
