Give me problems, give me work, give me the most abstruse cryptogram or the most intricate analysis, and I am in my own proper atmosphere. I can dispense then with artificial stimulants. But I abhor the dull routine of existence. I crave for mental exaltation. That is why I have chosen my own particular profession,—or rather created it, for I am the only one in the world.”

The Sign of Four is the second Sherlock Holmes novel, a surprising adventure of twists and turns, both in the mystery and the narrator’s personal life!

“Ah, yes,” here interposed the young Vicomte, “I have heard speak of this Scarlet Pimpernel. A little flower — red? — yes! They say in Paris that every time a royalist escapes to England that devil, Foucquier-Tinville, the Public Prosecutor, receives a paper with that little flower designated in red upon it.”

This tale of romance and derring-do takes place during the French Revolution. Written by a Baroness, it features swash-buckling adventure, intrigue, and the first example of a hero with a secret identity.
