Sherlock Holmes Railway Mysteries

Discovered this via the IMDB site, just ripping from a Library CD copy.

From Publishers Weekly
Starred Review. Benedict Cumberbatch, star of the British television series Sherlock, shines in this audio version of four short mystery stories written by John Taylor and inspired by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. In each tale—"An Inscrutable Masquerade," "The Trinity Vicarage Larceny," "The Conundrum of Coach 13," and "The 10:59 Assassin"—Dr. Watson refers to his notes and reveals the secrets of past cases that he and Holmes never before made public. Cumberbatch's crisp narration builds in intensity and energy with the action and suspense of each story. His Watson is thoughtful and nuanced while his Sherlock is quick and bright with a sharp, commanding voice. A treat for Holmes fans and mystery lovers, this is hopefully the first in a long line of Holmes titles narrated by Cumberbatch.

Cummerbatch gets rave reviews for doing about 20 different voices in reading it.

Hmmm... beautifully read, though the stories themselves suck big Baskerville hound balls.
