SHERLOCK HOLMES: THE TOP-SECRET PLANS

Hello everybody, today I am going to talk about a book that I red this winter holidays, called: Sherlock Holmes: The Top-Secret plans, and this book is write by Arthur Conan Doyle.

The book starts when Mycroft, the brother of Sherlock Holmes, write a telegram to Sherlock, and he says that he wants to speak about Mr. Arthur Cadogan, a men that was murdered and threw to the train roads.

After Mycroft arrive, with the inspector Lestrade, to Sherlock, and his friend Watson, house. There, they talk about Arthur Cadogan, the boy murdered: 
He was twenty-seven years old and he lived with his wife in Woolwich, and he worked in Woolwich Arsenal. On Monday night he was in Woolwich with his wife and he has theatre tickets but suddenly he run and left his wife in the street. After a worker find his body in the train roads and in his pocket he has a top-secret plans for a British submarine. 

When they finish to talk Holmes and Watson start to investigate very quickly because those plans are very important.

The most important characters of the book are: Sherlock Holmes, his friend Doctor Watson and Mycroft Holmes. 

The writer was Arthur Conan Doyle. He was born in Edinburg on may of 1859. When he was young he read a lot, but he wasn't a very good student. When he left the school he went to Edinburg University to be a doctor. But he didn't have money and he wrote stories to make money. In 1881 he left the University and worked as a doctor on a ship. He was a good doctor but he didn't make much money and he started to write again. In 1890 he wrote a story called "A Study in Scarlet" and he introduced the character of Sherlock Holmes. He wrote 59 more stories about him, but also he wrote other type of books. He died in England on July of 1930.

I like this book a lot because I like mystery and detective stories, and also I like it because the killer is very unexpected.
