This story, found in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, is one of the best in my opinion. Is it possible for the machine like brain of this genius to be foiled? Has Holmes finally met his match? And surely it is not by a lowly woman who outwits him! In this story Holmes meets a woman whom forever after he refers to as "THE" woman so anything is possible. Listen and enjoy as he matches wits with 'THE' woman and comes out on the losing end. Let Dr. Watson, his faithful companion, explain how he deals with this err ....problem.

Work Description

"A Scandal in Bohemia" is the first short story, and the third overall work, featuring Arthur Conan Doyle's fictional detective Sherlock Holmes. It is the first of the 56 Holmes short stories written by Doyle and the first of 38 Sherlock Holmes works illustrated by Sidney Paget. The story is notable for introducing the character of Irene Adler, who is one of the most notable female characters in the Sherlock Holmes series, despite appearing in only one story. Doyle ranked "A Scandal in Bohemia" fifth in his list of his twelve favourite Holmes stories.

"A Scandal in Bohemia" was first published on 25 June 1891 in the July issue of The Strand Magazine, and was the first of the stories collected in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes in 1892.
