The Man with the Twisted Lip

This is one of the most interesting stories of Sherlock Holmes. On the one hand, the solution didn´t come entirely from Sherlock Holmes' great deductive abilities, rather his intuition and his photographic memory helped him a lot, and on the other hand, this story gives a feeling that something is missing. In this regard, the author highlighted several points. First, the danger of drugs and the serious damage they cause to people. Second, the delicate matter of the secret life or the double life. And third, as in other stories, such as: The Adventure of the Reigate Squire, The Boscombe Valley Mystery, and The Adventure of the Norwood Builder, among others, in such complicated cases and with little evidence, it is very difficult for investigators to tie up all the loose ends and get to the bottom of the truth. This ebook is divided into these sections: ● Introduction. ● The Man with the Twisted Lip. ● Final Considerations. Finally, the author considers that in these situations many people suffer, affected by dangerous substances, or deceived by others that have a secret life. And in these last cases, it is very difficult for the authorities to investigate. However, as is also reflected in the story of The Adventure of Silver Blaze, it is stated that sooner or later those who proceed in this way end up with their lives destroyed. Concluding, rightly, the author makes a call for attention to not having a secret life, condemning these deplorable practices, which in the long-term harm both those who act badly and the victims.
