The master of disguise and deduction continues to use his extraordinary skills and enlist the trusty Dr. Watson to help him unravel mysteries that test his powers against a variety of clever evildoers. Holmes introduces his brother Mycroft to Watson in "The Greek Interpreter", and grapples with his nemesis, the arch villain Professor Moriarty in a literal cliffhanger in "The Final Solution." Dr. Watson is a patient and affectionate chronicler not only of the detective and his cases, but also of the man who " keeps his cigars in the coal-scuttle, his tobacco in the toe end of a Persian slipper, and his unanswered correspondence transfixed by a jack-knife into the very centre of his wooden mantelpiece".
