Regarding Sherlock Holmes novels in particular, most likely "The Hound of the Baskervilles." Regarding short story collections, then "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes."

The best selling work by volume of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was a collection, in a single book. So the correct answer to the question posed is The Complete Sherlock Holmes

Most of the Holmes stories are short stories not novels. Of the novels, The Hound of the Baskervilles would be the most popular. It is also the one that has been filmed most often.

The Hound of the Baskervilles is the most popular novel, The Redheaded League is the most popular short story.

There were four.
The best for most people, since it's been made into
a movie many times, is:
"The Hound of the Baskervilles".
The version with Peter Cushing as Holmes and
Christoper Lee as a nice person for once is a favorite of mine. I remember it as being made about 1959.

I think that "The Hound of the Baskervilles" is probably the most popular with non-Holmes fans, but it seems to me that the real fans actually tend to prefer "The Sign of Four."
