Quote:Sherlock Holmes relates a story from his earliest days before Dr. Watson had become his friend and chronicler. In this tale Holmes is drawn to Hardwick Hall in the south of England, which has an eerie sobriquet: The Spider Web. The young detective matches wits with a wily and dangerous criminal. Holmes first demonstrates the skills that would do him in good stead in the future. This is a novel length story typical of the Holmes tales. The Sherlock Holmes Uncovered Tales are a series of original stories based upon the immortal characters, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
