This is surely one of the greatest detective stories ever written. I shall be sending it out on a bookray. The participants are:

MandaJo (USA)
Sugaryfun (Australia)
"The terrible spectacle of the beast, the fog of the moor, the
discovery of a body, this classic horror story pits detective against
dog. When Sir Charles Baskerville is found dead on the wild Devon
moorland with the footprints of a giant hound nearby, the blame is
placed on a family curse. It is left to Sherlock Holmes and Doctor
Watson to solve the mystery of the legend of the phantom hound before
Sir Charles' heir comes to an equally gruesome end. The Hound Of The
Baskervilles gripped readers when it was first serialised and has
continued to hold its place in the popular imagination."

Received today from pennywhistler as the first leg of the bookray. Lovely edition of the book with an excellent postcard/bookmark which is very relevant to the tale, I'll make sure I pass this on with the book.
I'd forgotten how much I enjoy the tales of Sherlock Holmes, and although I've read this one before, it was a pleasure to read again.
Thanks pennywhistler for sending this out on a bookray :)
I've PM iamagirldork for her details so that I can send the book on to her.

Safe and sound in my hands :) Can't wait to read it!
Woot. Nancy Drew and Scooby-Doo all wrapped up in one. This is my first Sherlock Holmes adventure and I loved it. I can't wait to read some more.
Thanks for including the postcard too. Was neat to see the location! And the moor ponies are beautiful.
PMd MandaJo for her address.

I'm so sorry, this was received quite some time ago, and managed to get buried in piles when we moved. I will contact the last person on the list to see if they still need this copy. If not, then I will find a good home for it.
