In all three detective fictions, Conan Doyle started with the characterization of the central figure, Holmes through the eyes of Dr. Watson. In first person narrative, Watson, the physician was set to describe Holmes persona. Being a man of medicine, he is the perfect foil to Holmes the hero because the objective nature of his job prepares him for the unbiased account of their adventures. Conan Doyle defines his character around the tangles of circumstances in which were approached deductively using scientific, analytical and inferential reasoning. Conan Doyle builds the character of Holmes using different methods. Using physiological and psychological terms such as ‘inhuman effect’, ‘isolated phenomenon’, ‘a brain without a heart’, ‘pre-eminent intelligence’, ‘atavism’, ‘hereditary aptitudes’, and “machine”, Conan Doyle was able to establish Holmes’ charisma of having undesirable eccentricities or striking characteristics of a common fictional detective. Holmes’ aura of superiority was established when Conan Doyle used sensitizing terms such as ‘human sympathy’, ‘unemotional character’, and ‘suppressed excitement’.

I preferred the story of The Speckled Band due to effective webbing of language, characterization and context. It has been very challenging and powerful, from the very start until the end of the story. For this reason, the tension and atmosphere created by the author effectively reaches and felt by the readers. As classical as it was written, its elements can withstand the differences in time and culture with its well crafted narration, characterization, denouement, conflict resolution and challenge.
