In 'Silver Blaze' the pair investigate the disappearance of a racehorse and the violent murder of its trainer, while in 'The Final Problem' Holmes at last comes face to face with his nemesis, the diabolical Professor Moriarty - 'the Napoleon of crime'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePenguin Clothbound Classics are bound in cloth and not paper.
