In our first foray into Conan Doyle's creepy classic "The Hound of the Baskervilles," we examine the subtly cruel dynamic between Watson and Holmes, as revealed by their seemingly playful opening conversation. By showing these two as much more than a genius and his humble admirer, Conan Doyle helps us invest in the mystery emotionally as well as intellectually.
