A Correct answer
Explanation

In 'The Final Problem' (1893), Holmes and Moriarty fight at the Reichenbach Falls in Switzerland, and both appear to fall to their deaths. This was Doyle's attempt to end the Holmes series (he later revived Holmes due to public demand). 'His Last Bow' is Holmes' retirement story, 'Valley of Fear' is a novel, and 'Red-Headed League' is an unrelated short story.
