Editorial reviews

BBC radio star David Timson knows his Sherlock Holmes. He gives another stellar performance in The Adventure of the Resident Patient. In it, a doctor with an interesting business arrangement brings his problems to the famous sleuth. Winner of the Audio of the Year award, Timson performs this just about 40-minute audiobook with intelligence and clarity. He embodies Dr. Watson, the honorable Victorian gentleman. Sherlock fans will appreciate Timson's extensive contribution to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's body of work.

Great reading of a Sherlock story

This was a great adaptation of one of the classic Sherlock stories. Pleasant to listen to, and not to drawn out. Well done!
