Z otevřené tlamy mu šlehal oheň, oči mu zářily a čumák, chřtán i krk byly obaleny plameny. Nikdy bych si v mysli nepředstavoval něco tak barbarského, tak ohavného, jako bylo tohle černé tělo a vrčící hlava, které vyrazily ze závěje mlhy. Když je sir Charles Baskerville nalezen mrtev za podivných okolností, jsou k vyšetřování povoláni Sherlock Holmes s Dr. Watsonem. Má se smrtí něco společného strašlivý pes, který údajně pronásleduje rod Baskervillů? Holmes s Watsonem musejí riskovat životy, aby záhadu vyřešili.
