Using his brilliant skills, Sherlock immediately deduces the physicality of the murderer.The novel establishes many peculiarities and the working styles of Sherlock and Watson, repeated in nearly all future Sherlock novels and stories, like Sherlock’s dependable child informers, the now famous ‘Baker Street Irregulars’, who also help to solve this novel’s case. Arthur Conan Doyle went on to write over fifty Sherlock Holmes short stories, and three full length novels.
