His Last Bow: Some Later Reminiscences of Sherlock Holmes (1917)*

His Last Bow is a collection of seven Sherlock Holmes short stories, written by Arthur Conan Doyle. The stories were published individually between 1908 and 1913, and later collected in this volume.

The title story, "His Last Bow," is set on the eve of World War I and features Holmes' final case before his retirement. The story follows Holmes as he foils a German espionage plot and brings the culprit to justice.

Other notable stories in the collection include "The Adventure of Wisteria Lodge," which involves a mysterious murder and a cryptic message, and "The Adventure of the Cardboard Box," which features a gruesome murder and a surprising twist.

His Last Bow showcases Doyle's mastery of the detective genre and offers a fitting conclusion to Holmes' illustrious career.

*The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes (1927)*

The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes is the final collection of Sherlock Holmes short stories written by Arthur Conan Doyle. The collection includes twelve stories, published individually between 1921 and 1927.

The stories in The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes are notable for their darker and more complex tone, reflecting the changing times and Doyle's own growing pessimism.

Some of the most notable stories in the collection include "The Illustrious Client," which features a mysterious and beautiful woman, and "The Lion's Mane," which is narrated by Holmes himself and features a gruesome murder on a beach.

Other standout stories include "The Veiled Lodger," which involves a tragic love affair and a shocking revelation, and "The Retired Colourman," which features a clever plot twist and a surprising culprit.

The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes offers a fitting conclusion to the Sherlock Holmes canon, showcasing Doyle's continued mastery of the detective genre and providing a satisfying end to the iconic detective's career.
