In this strong follow-up to The Case of the Missing Marquess, fourteen-year-old Enola Holmes takes on a case that big brother Sherlock won't deign to touch: Lady Cecily's scandalous disappearance with an unsavory suitor. Enola's spunk (she refuses to become "a singing, dancing, French-quoting, delicately fainting decoration") and smarts (she unmasks a Jekyll-and-Hyde-type villain) are sure to resonate with readers.
