Exciting and adventurous!

Packed with period details, this Victorian adventure introduces a brilliant, resourceful heroine and sets the scene for her sleuthing adventures. Enola Holmes, Sherlock Holmes's fourteen year old sister, travels to London in search of her mother, but finds herself involved in the kidnapping of a young marquess, fleeing murderous villains and evading her annoying older brothers and their attempts to send her to boarding school. Amid all the mayhem, will she decode the clues left by her mother and explain her disappearance?

The Enola Holmes six-book series inspired the Netflix film starring Millie Bobby Brown.
