The case gains a new urgency when the goose is discovered to hold a valuable secret. This is one of the more familiar Holmes stories since it’s often included in anthologies of Christmas mysteries. It’s a good entry point to the Holmes canon. Holmes gives a magical performance as he extracts a man from his hat! This is Conan Doyle's Christmas Sherlock Holmes story, about a lost jewel concealed within the crop of a Christmas goose. It's a good story that manages to combine Christmas humour with a serious backdrop of a man wrongly accused with the theft of the jewel. Not one of Conan Doyle's very best, but always comes up well. no reviews | add a review
