A Study in Scarlet is the novel which first introduced Arthur Conan Doyles' iconic characters Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. It was published in 1887 in a popular magazine, Beeton's Christmas Annual. It attracted little public attention at the time, but interest in Holmes continued to build with the subsequent series of short stories Doyle wrote featuring the austere, analytical detective - now one of the most well-known characters in all of English literature.
