The Detective King
SHERLOCK HOLMES,
The World's Greatest Detective.
One question stands out: Is there anybody who has not heard the name "Sherlock Holmes", and the answer must absolutely be: No. The name "Sherlock Holmes" has sounded in the ears of every civilized human being og does so till this day. The name "Sherlock Holmes" will never die.
From where do we know Sherlock Holmes? Where do we meet the famous detective?
He moves in the mean streets of the Metropole, in the boudoirs of the Demi-Mondes and in the parlours of the embezzler.
When the fog from the Thames lies heavy and threatening over the city then Sherlock Holmes knows that danger lurks and that his presence is necessary; for under the protection of the fog every free murderer, thief, arsonist and embezzler is on the lookout to spy on their unhappy victims later to pounce upon them like the wildest beast of prey and make them disappear.
That is when Sherlock Holmes with no concern for his own life comes to the rescue.
With his fine scent he follows the secret and nearly obliterated tracks of the criminal when he hunts his prey, and in the nick of time Sherlock Holmes upsets the the evil plots only to disappear again unknown.
Where from? - Where to? - Nobody knows.
The detective king publishes his secrets.
Europe listens breathlessly.
No criminologist has yet succeded in such a brilliant way to fill the world with astonishment at his deeds as Sherlock Holmes and everywhere where justice and law is fighting against the demonic and hatefull plots of the criminals Sherlock Holmes is triumphant.
Why is the world proud of this extraordinary man?
Why do all criminals dread Sherlock Holmes?
Why are millions in all nations of the world so enraptured by the secrets of his diaries?
The reason is that there has never been a detective with equal intellect, strenght, secret knowledge and presence of mind who has used these rare gifts in altruistic service for the human race.
The adventures of the detective king in London, Paris, Vienna, Madrid, his fights against criminals in New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Cairo, India and Australia, his eagle eye that sees through the darkest puzzle, the deductive powers of his brain that saves him from all dangers, his superior thought experiments that springs from an almost superhuman knowledge of mankind and scientific basis, his will of iron when it comes to overcoming an obstacle, all of these brings Sherlock Holmes to the desired goal and is described in the Detective King's sensational, nervewracking and interesting stories.
Anyone who has read one of these stories will for ever be our reader and an enthusiastic friend and admirer of the detective king Sherlock Holmes.
The world's greatest and most famous detective before whom all criminals in the world tremble.
