NEW! The ANNOTATED “Adventures of Silver Blaze,” A Sherlock Holmes Story



In this episode, I both read and annotate Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s “Adventures of Silver Blaze.” Elsewhere on this site, I have a narration with no paused for annotations. In this new version on this page, I interrupt the narration from time to time to explain the significance of each passage that we encounter.  Let me know if you enjoy this presentation, please!


“A Scandal in Bohemia” by Arthur Conan Doyle



Narrated by Dr. Rick Reiman

In this classic short story in the Sherlock Holmes series, Holmes, with the help of Dr. Watson, matches wits with a woman, Irene Adler. Spoiler alert: The woman wins. It is one of the few Sherlock Holmes stories in which Holmes fails. And he never forgets it!

The players:

Sherlock Holmes: Dr. Rick Reiman

Dr. Watson: Dr. Rick Reiman

The King of Bohemia: Dr. Rick Reiman

Irene Adler: Dr. Rick Reiman
