Lucy looks at what happened after the author killed off Sherlock Holmes, exploring his desire to distance himself from the sleuth. From the delights of the ski slopes to the horrors of the Boer War, she reveals how far Conan Doyle went to make himself the hero of his own story - including taking on the role of detective himself in one of the most important legal cases of the 20th century
