Book Description
Trevor Bennett is engaged to Edith Presbury and works for her father, a professor. The latter is himself engaged to another young lady and colleague’s daughter, Alice Morphy. But Professor Presbury has been acting strange since his engagement. He suddenly left for Prague without telling anyone and was gone for a fortnight. He has since then been receiving letters that Bennett is under strict orders not to open. The professor also brought back a wooden box from his trip and became irate when Bennett picked it up. His whole personality is changed and Bennett hopes that Sherlock Holmes can help him crack the case. "The Adventure of the Creeping Man" is part of "The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes". Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was born in Scotland and studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh. After his studies, he worked as a ship’s surgeon on various boats. During the Second Boer War, he was an army doctor in South Africa. When he came back to the United Kingdom, he opened his own practice and started writing crime books. He is best known for his thrilling stories about the adventures of Sherlock Holmes. He published four novels and more than 50 short-stories starring the detective and Dr Watson, and they play an important role in the history of crime fiction. Other than the Sherlock Holmes series, Doyle wrote around thirty more books, in genres such as science-fiction, fantasy, historical novels, but also poetry, plays, and non-fiction.

Book Description
Mr. Sherlock Holmes was always of opinion that I should publish the singular facts connected with Professor Presbury, if only to dispel once for all the ugly rumours which some twenty years ago agitated the university and were echoed in the learned societies of London.

Mr. Trevor Bennett comes to Holmes with a most unusual problem. He is Professor Presbury's personal secretary, and until recently he has enjoyed the old Camford physiologist's implicit trust as though he were a close member of the family. The professor, however, has begun to act strangely after returning from a mysterious fortnight's absence. He is harboring an item that he is very aggressively protective over, and his behaviour almost seems at times animalistic... can Holmes and Watson get to the bottom of what is happening?
