Don’t miss Enola Holmes: The Case of the Missing Marquess! A Netflix original movie starring Millie Bobby Brown, Henry Cavill, and Helena Bonham Carter!

Enola Holmes—younger sister to Sherlock Holmes—is back on another case!

Enola is thrown into a tailspin when she receives a desperate message from her old friend, Lady Cecily. Enola knows she must help her friend before it’s too late—but she doesn’t know how! This complicated case has Enola hunting down clues all over London until she finally discovers the awful truth: Lady Cecily is being held prisoner! Enola must risk her own freedom and join forces with her brother, the famed Sherlock Holmes, to free Cecily. Can Enola trust her brother, and can they save Cecily in time?

A lively, entertaining story, wonderful characters and a great plot, very well read by Katherine Kellgren. My only wish is that the author did some basic research into how British titles work: Cecilia Alastair, being the daughter of a baronet, would be simple Miss Alastair. To be ‘The Honourable Cecilia’ she would have to be the daughter of a Viscount or a Baron, or ‘Lady Cecilia’, she would have to be the daughter of a Duke, Marquis or Earl. And no, I am not someone who obsesses about titles, it is just that I worked for Burke’s Peerage many years ago so learned it all. A woman, however well born, is not a lady unless her father has one of the titles above, in which case she uses it with her Christian name and keeps it for her lifetime, or marries into one of the titles below Duke, and would therefore be ‘Lady’, followed by her husband’s title.

Another good adventure for Enola

the narrator cannot pronounce English words properly or do believable accents. The author should know, unlike America, there were very few Irish policemen due to political unrest. Too many Americanisms, anachronisms and shoddy historical research.

enjoyable frippery but...
