Everyone knows Sherlock Holmes. However there were many other detective stories being written at that time.
He is an excellent detective and a bad man. As one of the cases states - often enabled him to profit himself far beyond the extent to which his clients intended. He has no problem taking advantage of his clients and what he learns.

Story 7, "The Affair of the Tortoise," is super cringey. The crime is intriguing, as always, but the racism is overwhelming.

Pretty good writing lifts this story of an odd billiard game--with a bit of a twist ending--above the ordinary. At least you'll be able to remember it somewhat a few days later!
