Sherlock Holmes - A Study In Scarlet

In the first of all the Sherlock Holmes stories, Dr. John Watson, discharged from military service after suffering severe wounds, is at a loose end until a chance encounter leads him to take rooms with a remarkable young man.  The arrogant, irracible Sherlock Holmes is a master chemist, a talented musician and an expert on all aspects of crime.  And when Watson is drawn into the investigation of a bizarre murder in which Holmes is involved, he is unaware that it is the beginning of the most famous partnership in the history of criminal detection. --- this is the BBC Radio Presents version ---
