104:18 The Sign of Four by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

The second Sherlock Holmes book. This one flowed much better than the first. We were able to follow Holmes through the investigation and hear his deductions very closely on which meshed better with the clues that we were given. None of the "ah ha, I just solved this based on information the reader wasn't given". It also was about 75% of the way through that the criminal was apprehended and then he told his story so it didn't feel so disjointed and his history took up much less of the story than in The Study in Scarlet. Overall, much more the Holmes I remember reading a bit of growing up and I look forward to reading more of in the future.
