'On the contrary, my dear Watson, you can see everything. You fail, however, to reason from what you see'

The solution? Elementary my dear friend. Call the super sleuth famed for his rapid deductions, his swift intuitions and ingenious solutions - Sherlock Holmes of 221b Baker Street.

He began publishing stories in 1879 and his first Sherlock Holmes novel, A Study in Scarlet, was published in 1887.
