There are, for example, those that feature animals such as The Hound of the Baskervilles, “The Veiled Lodger,” and “The Lion’s Mane.” Others, like “A Case of Identity” and “The Noble Bachelor,” may be labelled as stories of love gone awry. Some, like “The Three Garridebs” and “The Dancing Men,” feature American villains. And still others, like “The Second Stain” and “The Bruce Partington Plans,” depict political subterfuge.The eleven stories gathered together in this two-volume anthology share their own common feature.
