A Study in Scarlet is a 1887 detective novel by British author Arthur Conan Doyle. Written in 1886, the story marks the first appearance of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, who would become two of the most famous characters in popular fiction.
The book's title derives from a speech given by Holmes, an amateur detective, to his friend and chronicler Watson on the nature of his work, in which he describes the story's murder investigation as his "study in scarlet": "There's the scarlet thread of murder running through the colourless skein of life, and our duty is to unravel it, and isolate it, and expose every inch of it."

Devil in Westwood: Moriarty x fem!reader
[CONTAINS SMUT!] ❗️18+❗️ ~~~ Being the youngest Holmes was always quite the journey, especially when you didn't want to show off your talents, maybe even lack of such. Compared to your brothers you were always the 'dumb' one. The teachers saw it, your parents knew it and your brothers never stopped yapping about it! You could hardly deduce like Sherlock and Mycroft but you didn't mind, that was until you weren't able to deduce Moriarty's true intentions with you. ~~~ All characters belong to Arthur Conan Doyle for original source material and BBC for portrayals! (Sebastian Moran's portrayal is a fan face claim of Michael Fassbender)Concluida
