'There's a scarlet thread of murder running through the colourless skein of life, and our duty is to unravel it, and isolate it, and expose every inch of it.'
From the moment Dr. John Watson takes lodgings in Baker Street with the consulting detective Sherlock Holmes, he becomes intimately acquainted with the bloody violence and frightening ingenuity of the criminal mind.
In A Study in Scarlet, Holmes and Watson's first mystery, the pair are summoned to a south London house where they find a dead man whose contorted face is a twisted mask of horror. The body is unmarked by violence but on the wall a mysterious word has been written in blood.
The police are baffled by the crime and its circumstances. But when Sherlock Holmes applies his brilliantly logical mind to the problem he uncovers a tragic tale of love and deadly revenge...

Whoop, Whoop I just finally finished listening too A Study In Scarlet, my very first classic and audible just now. And guess what I absolutely love hearing this book on audible. I decided to give an audible a try and see if I like it or not, because a lot of my readers friends on goodreads and other book blogger friends love listening too books. Plus I wanted too listen too a book while I am at the gym except of always listening too music on my phone. And I was hooked line and sinker with this first book I picked, which surprise me because I thought I would of been bored and didn't understand the dialoged that well. Because it is in the era of the 1920's and the characters will speak British as well in the book, but I did somewhat got lost by the 1920's British dialoged on some of the langue. But I absolutely love and adore how David Clarke narrated this book so much I really enjoyed on how he did the voices. I can't wait to continue on listening the rest of the Sherlock Holmes series while I am at the gym. Heck who I am kidding I am so going to listen too some of the series at home as well. I can't tell you how much I am so excited for that. But all and all I won't go into any details about A Study In Scarlet, because I think everybody knows about this amazing book. But watch out this won't be my last book I am going to listen too or my last Classic book I am going to listen too either, be very prepare there are going to be a lot more classic books and audible reviews now and more in the future too come!
