The Empty House.
The chapter named The Empty House of Sherlock Holmes Stories book start talking about the murder of Ronald Adair. By that time Dr Watson was sure about Sherlock Holmes death and he had been being very interested in crime and those days the most interesting case was the death of Ronald Adair; he was very popular and belonged to several clubs in London. The day he died he played a cards game and return to his home, when his mother tried to say goodnight to him the door was locked and he didn’t answer. He was founded death in his table.
There were a lot of difficulties around the investigation and Watson went to take a look on Ronald’s window. Standing there he suddenly knocked with some old and strange man. When Watson returned to his house and the strange man was there but he realized that the man was Sherlock Holmes! He couldn’t believe it.
Holmes started explained that he wasn’t in that place where supposedly he had died. Someone called Moriarty wanted to kill him, they fought and Moriarty fall down. But he wasn’t the only person who wanted to kill him so Holmes had to hide and waited until something like Ronald’s murder happened to return to London.
They walked in a dark lonely street until they arrived to an empty and completely dark place; Watson looked up to one room and saw the shadow of an exactly model of Holmes, they old enemies had been watching his room. A man entered but they were hiding already, he had a kind of rifle. Holmes and Watson hit him and the police rushed, it was Colonel Sebastian Moran, one of the best shots.
Holmes examined the weapon and said –you have the man who shot Ronald Adair through the window-. He had played cards with Ronald followed him and shot through his window. He couldn’t explain why but Holmes supposed that Ronald discovered Moran cheating; he could not leave the club so he had to kill him.
It was really surprising found that Sherlock Holmes wasn’t dead and I supposed hat most be really shocking see someone you thought was dead. I find this chapter a little bit more difficult because we have to relation all the stories and imagine how Holmes could survive every time someone tried to kill him.
I think that the purpose of the author was really accomplished because you always keep linked with the story.
I really enjoyed reading this book, it was very fun and interesting.

Hi Farrah,
Your report is good, unfurtunately you forgot to include both, an introduction and an analysis. A personal comment on your impressions (more than a couple of lines!) could have done good too!.
