作者簡介:
原著:亞瑟.柯南.道爾爵士(Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, 1859-1930)
亞瑟.柯南.道爾爵士出生蘇格蘭愛丁堡,自1887年《血字的研究》(A Study in Scarlet)起,連續出版多篇長短不一的精彩探案故事。他以在愛丁堡大學攻讀醫學時的教師約瑟夫.貝爾博士為雛型,創造出福爾摩斯偵探這個角色。因此,在福爾摩斯身上,可以發現一個好醫生的特質:精通於觀察,邏輯,演繹和診斷。1892年時,他將這些以福爾摩斯為主角的偵探小說編彙為《福爾摩斯探案》。他原想在1894年時將此系列終結,卻因此引起讀者的不悅,於是他又在1902年《福爾摩斯歸來記》(The Return of Sherlock Holmes)中令福爾摩斯起死回生。
他的作品合乎邏輯的推理引人入勝,結構起伏跌宕,人物形象鮮明,並涉及當時英國社會現實。
