The Greek Interpreter by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle audio book

In this adventure we are at last introduced to Sherlock Holmes brother Mycroft, the only relative of whom Watsons friend has ever openly spoken during their long assocation. Mycroft, says Sherlock Holmes, is Sherlocks superior in intelligence and observation but cannot put the gifts to practical use. They stroll to the singular accomodations of the Diogenes Club, and as Dr. Watson becomes acquainted with the elder Holmes, Mycroft introduces them to a Grecian interpreter. The mans bizarre story draws the detective and his companion into a case of extortion, kidnapping, fraud, cruelty and violence.


Mr. Melas, a Greek interpreter, tells a rather unnerving experience to Mycroft Holmes, who like his brother Sherlock Holmes is remarkably endowed with powers of observation and deduction. Sherlock claims that his brother’s powers actually outstrip his own, but he is a lazy, apathetic character who rarely uses his powers to their full potential.
