2) I was expecting there to be an over-arching plot, similar to something like 'The Hounds of the Baskervilles'
With regards to #2, there isn't.
This, instead, hews closer to something like The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes in that it is presented as a series of more-or-less standalone cases, with the final one in the collection 'His Last Bow' and with that one set in the early 1910s, just before the outbreak of World War One, and in which Holmes comes out of retirement to solve one last case.
