I went between enjoying the story and then not feeling totally involved- - maybe two authors is a bit of a compromise - so that neither one shines? But The narrator - Alfred Enoch - was truly wonderful. I have listened to hundreds of books - and he is right up there with the very best - maybe THE best ( and so young too!)

Amazing narration

I wasn't sure if I was going to like yet another Sherlock variation - but this is just wonderful! I love Anthony Horowitz's writing and this co-authored story with Sarah J Naughton is up to the usual standard. Amazing imagination, great writing and a brilliant story. Great performance too. I'm buying the second in the series right away and please keep 'em coming

Amazing! So, so good
