Resumen del Editor

In May of 1890, Enola Holmes is finally fully on her own and, no longer hiding from her older brothers Sherlock and Mycroft, attending classes and occasionally pursuing her chosen profession as a scientific perditorian, a finder of lost things and people.

Wolcott Balestier, the representative of an American book publisher, arrived in London on a singular mission—to contract with English authors for their latest works. When Balestier disappears on the streets of London one day, his great friend - Rudyard Kipling—bursts into Enola's office looking for help in finding him. Brash and unwilling to hire a young woman, instead he turns to Sherlock Holmes. Convinced that evil has befallen Balestier, at the hands of rival American publishers who pirate the works of English authors, he sets the elder Holmes on the trail.

But Enola is not one to accept defeat, especially not to her brother, and sets off on her own—determined to learn the truth behind the disappearance of the young American. Can book publishing truly be so ruthless and deadly or can the missing man be rescued from his apparent fate and returned to his friends and loved ones?

The redoubtable Enola is determined to do just that, even if it means working with her brother Sherlock!

Wonderful!!

I so look forward to every new adventure of Enola Holmes! The Narrating is simply the best!!
Bravo!!

I love this book series

I’m in 8th grade and love these books I love them because they are not romance based and they have a great main character she is brilliant but still makes mistakes l loved having male relationships that were not gay and the only thing I miss is lady Alastair I think it gets grittier as it goes on maybe 11+but that shows caterer growth I think the first six books have a much different cadence then the later books eating for the next book S

Truly excellent

Wonderful to see Enola evolving, learning and GROWING (which is what's missing in many other long-running female-detective series, Rhys Bowen I'm looking at you.) Also splendid to see the development of female friendships, and her increasing collaborations with Sherlock.

Regarding narration, Tamaryn Payne does a remarkable job considering who she had to follow (the late, great Katherine Kellgren). I'd love to see her improve her range of British (Scottish, Irish, etc) accents, but that's just me.

Love the Enola Holmes Series

The Enola Holmes book series is very enjoyable. I prefer the books to the Netflix series because as with most books turned into film, much must be left out. I enjoy the audiobooks because I can listen as I work. I also enjoy the narration. It makes me feel as if I am in the room or on the streets of London with Enola. I also know there will be a happy ending, so it’s enjoyable light reading.

Loved it!

Clean and entertaining- this listener is hooked. Thank you so much to both writer and narrator.

Thoroughly enjoyed it!

I loved every bit of it! I sincerely loved how Tamaryn Payne read this beautifully. I look forward to more of Enola Holmes adventures! I might say, this is one of my favorite books as of yet!

So entertaining!

This new adventure of Enola Homes was so entertaining that I found myself using every available spare moment to listen to what would happen next!

Very entertaining and funny.

Enola does not disappoint with her wit and courage. Very inspirational to all. Highly recommended.

exciting story about real people who knew each other. Also live at the same time as the fictional Sherlock Holmes!

a very wonderful story all in all - from a very die hard Enola Holmes fan.

I’ve listened to the original 6 many many times. This one Definitely keeps you on the edge of your seat. Probably quite disturbing for sensitive young teens (since there’s a ferocious dog and many details about how they created the original inoculations) but for mature listeners it is quite excellent! And the end is satisfactory. I also like how she weaves in Oscar Wilde and other historical elements. It’s also fun to have the famous detective playing an active part alongside Enola. There were a few character events that defy logic - for instance a certain protagonist catching a ride on a bovine to secure a lead… Another thing that I did not enjoy is how this narrator says Dr. Ragostin… it just sounds wrong! And it definitely had a different flavour from the originals, Enola seems quite immature compared to her character in the early books. I actually felt myself annoyed with her several times! But if you take it on it’s own it’s a great story. All in all would recommend.
