Questing was Sherlock Holmes's business. He famously adopted the latest forensic techniques, channelled the Victorian passion for enquiry, kept abreast of the key scientific breakthroughs of his age, and conducted his investigations in an enigmatic and stylised manner. And the brains behind it all was, of course, the great Arthur Conan Doyle. In this deep dive into the contemporary world of Holmes and Conan Doyle, biographer Andrew Lycett explores all that encompasses the world of the great detective - tracing the infamous character's own interests, personality and mythologised biography alongside that of his creator's. From the Victorian crazes for detection and seance, to contemporary developments in science and psychology, Lycett weaves together everything that inspired Conan Doyle in creating the world's most famous detective and one of fictions most enduring, enigmatic and recognisable characters.
