He sometimes works with Lestrade [less-TROD] and Gregson, and his creator was knighted for services during the Boer War.
He sometimes works with Lestrade [less-TROD] and Gregson, and his creator was knighted for services during the Boer War. This character was based on a medical school professor, and interestingly enough a doctor was later based on him. Characters of Poe and Gaboriau anticipated this man, but he himself first appeared in a story concerning a corpse found nearby a blood-written sign. He seems to die when thrown with his nemesis off a cliff, but reappeared by popular demand eight years later. His method focused on eliminating the impossible, so that only the possible (however improbable) remained. Name this man whose biographer was James Watson, the inspiration for TV's Dr. House and the protagonist of detective stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
