This new version of a recording only published last week features audio enhancements and sound effects that put you in the time and place of the story, more dramatically than ever.
One of the most popular, and certainly most socially-conscious, of the Sherlock Holmes stories is “The Man with the Twisted Lip,” by Arthur Conan Doyle. A man disappears, a beggar enters the picture, and Holmes and Watson are caught between the devil and the deep, brown opium den called “The Bar of Gold.” Of course Holmes solves the mystery, but first he has to determine what the mystery is in the first place. Come along with Holmes and Watson on this dangerous journey–if you dare.
