BOOK REPORT 1





-Sir Arthur Conan Doyle-
Sherlock Holmes Stories


“SILVER BLAZE”

The principal objective of the story is solve a mystery and crime…

The story began when the racehorse Silver Blaze disappeared, and Mr. Holmes received telegrams from the owner, Colonel Ross, and Gregory, the detective, asked for his help!… and he decided to help them.
The essential facts of the case were, as the Silver Blaze was the favourite horse for the Wessex Cup, so his disappearance is of advantage to many people, and for this reason the trainer guard him well, but at night the trainer went to the stable to see if all was well, but he never came back, so his wife went to the stables, and saw Ned that is a boy to work in the stables unconscious, Silver Blaze gone, and there was no sign of the trainer, so they went out to search for horse and trainer and found the dead body of the trainer and he had a knife in one of his hands covered in blood, so people thought that he had hurt the stranger.
Gregory, the officer arrested a suspected “the stranger”, his names is Simpson, he was suspected because he wasted his money on betting against Silver Blaze, so the police thought that he had killed the trainer and then hid the horse in somewhere, but there were many strange things, so Holmes supposed that he’s not guilty, after the investigation that was a little difficult, Mr. Holmes and Dr. Watson solve the case, they discovered that Silver Blaze was hiding until after the Wessex Cup, and the real criminal was the trainer “Straker” he needed money, so he wanted cut the horse and make it lame, but for accident the horse hit him, so he fall down to the ground, the knife cut him, and this was the reason of his dead.


I think that this story is more interesting and amusing, this one of the stories that more like me because in my opinion this is the most surprising end, the solution of the case was very disturbing and surprising, because I’d never thought that the trainer were the criminal.

Well in my conclusion the lecture was good and overcoat was entertaining , I thought this kind of books I don’t like me, but after read it, I really like it…
