The Russian equivalent of Sherlock Holmes is "Sherlock Holmes" himself, as the character created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is well-known and popular in Russia. However, a notable Russian detective character is "Porfiry Petrovich," from Fyodor Dostoevsky's novel "Crime and Punishment." Additionally, the character "Gorodetsky" from the works of Russian author and playwright Arkady and Boris Strugatsky has also been likened to Holmes in his investigative approach.
