Technically in order of publication Hound came between The Final Problem and The Adventure of The Empty House, though was obviously set before the events at the Reichenbach Falls... It was the third of four full length novelisations of Holmes (Study In Scarlett, Sign of Four, and Valley Of Fear being the others). So you are quite right that Hound Of The Baskervilles didnt in fact "bring him back," as Holmes hadnt yet encountered Moriarty at the Falls at the time of the events on Dartmoor...
