so many thanks for your reading of the book David. I was hooked from the first minute . I know this book is well over a hundred years old but it was as fresh and captivating as if it was new .
A stunning read

once again hats off to Mr David Clarke. You never disappoint to transport me into the heart of the story. Thank you for sharing your amazing gift with us.
I love David Clarke's Sherlock readings. He has a gift for giving the characters distinct voices so we know who is speaking without getting to hammy or exaggerated about it loke other readers often do. Plus very relaxing voice. A few places where the recording quality is bot the best, but still get five stars; it's a volunteer project, not a pro recording studio, and I like this guy's reading so much that it doesn't even matter.
