About this audiobook
'He's an intelligent man. He was once rich and is now poor. His wife loved him once, but she doesn't love him now. And he's thirty or forty years old.' One look at an old hat, and Sherlock Holmes can tell you a lot about its owner. He sees - and thinks - a lot more than the people around him, and when a beautiful blue diamond disappears, Sherlock is the only man in London who can find it.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5One of my favorite childhood author. Felt nostalgic listening to one of his stories. Narration a bit slow had to speed up to 1.2x to make it sound comfortable.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The author’s consummate skill at telling a tale...he was always a master at it.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Good story, but the guy who reads for Sherlock talks incredibly slow. I felt like I was being talked down to as Watson the whole way through.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Worst Sherlock Holmes short story ever. Very boring. No witty repartee.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Nice story with Sherlock and Watson
Good reading before sleep - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5
Great book! Perfect for if you want a short book to listen to! - Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5At first I thought to myself I might be impressed if my 7 year old had written this. I mean Sherlock knew the man was smart because he had a big hat, which means a big head, and a big head means a big brain. Seriously? That wasn't the only supposed observation that was just plain silly, either. Then the ending convinced me it was drivel no matter who wrote it. I don't want to give away the end but it was ridiculous. In the next one Sherlock probably gives the criminal a "safe space" and a teddy bear.
