Enola teams up with her brother to locate a woman who has supposedly "died" but whose twin sister is not so sure. The story deals with a practice that was commonly used to "get rid of" pesky wives or daughters - declare them "insane" and have them committed. It's fun to watch Enola and Sherlock approach the case from different angles and then team up for success. ( ) This is book 7 of the Enola Holmes Mysteries series. Enola is a precocious and intelligent girl who cringes at the typical expectations of women in her social status. Enola Holmes doesn’t like living in the secluded mansion after her mother leaves on her 14th birthday. Enola is the much younger sister of Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes. Her name spelled backwards is “alone” which is how she prefers to live to avoid boarding school. She is just as unconventional as her mother not wanting to succumb to the Victorian traditions. Not wanting to be sent to boarding school, she slips out and finds clever ways to disguise herself. Enola finds unique ways of taking care of herself with her many disguises which allows her to help solve mysteries for people. She often finds herself involved in the same cases as her brother Sherlock. In 1889, Dr Watson seeks Enola's assistance when Sherlock becomes depressed, and lacking interest in working his cases. When a woman arrives for help from Sherlock, Enola meets with Miss Letitia Glover who is concerned about her twin sister Felicity "Flossie" who married 2 years ago to Earl of Dunhench. He had proposed to 18-year-old Flossie when she worked as a governess to his 2 children. Letitia hasn't heard from her sister until she receives an odd letter from Cadogan Butt Rudcliff II (Caddie). There was a suspicious story about her sister dying suddenly from a virulent disease and he had her body cremated. Enola is soon on the case with the help of Sherlock who determines that the cremated remains are that of an animal and not a person. Well, Enola goes to extreme measures, as usual, to solve the mystery of Letitia's missing sister. This installment of the series was published more than a decade after the previous installment, The Case of the Gypsy Good-Bye, likely to coincide with the Netflix adaptation of the books. It’s a fun adventure with Sherlock and Enola teaming up to solve a mystery, although it’s more like Enola leaps in to solve the mystery and Sherlock tags along to make sure she stays out of trouble! I enjoyed this book very much and read it in a day. I’d recommend this series to its target audience for sure, but even adults would have fun reading this series. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
