The Hound of the Baskervilles (MP3 CD)

Leírás

Az öreg Sir Charles Baskerville holtan fekszik. Arcára ráfagyott a kimondhatatlan rettegés, és a teste mellett egy hatalmas kutya lábnyoma látszik. Amikor megérkezik az ifjú Sir Henry, hogy átvegye örökségét, őt is baljóslatú események zaklatják fel. Vajon családi átok ez, mely a Baskerville famíliát kísérti a ködlepte Dartmoore-i pusztaságon, vagy nagyon is emberi gyilkos áll a háttérben?

Holmes and Watson receive a visit from Dr. James Mortimer, who wishes to consult them before meeting Sir Henry Baskerville, the last of the Baskervilles, and heir to the Baskerville estate in Dartmoor. Dr. Mortimer tells them he is uneasy about letting him go to Baskerville Hall, owing to a supposed family curse. He narrates the legend of the Hound of the Baskervilles, a demonic dog that first killed Sir Hugo Baskerville several hundred years ago, and is believed to kill all Baskervilles in the region of Dartmoor. When Holmes dismisses it as a fairy tale, he narrates the events of the recent death of Sir Charles Baskerville, Henry’s uncle, who was found dead in his garden without any trace of physical damage, but with a terror-distorted face. He then reveals something that he had not mentioned at the official inquest. He alone had noticed footmarks at some distance from the body when it was found, the footmarks of a gigantic hound!
