INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Peacock, Shane

Death in the Air

(3) 4-6 Boy Sherlock Holmes series. A trapeze artist's murder leads thirteen-year-old Sherlock Holmes to London's nastiest gang. As the young detective tries to track down and collar these hoodlums, Peacock's text raises thought-provoking questions about where the line falls between good and evil and whether the end justifies the means. Throughout, Peacock paints a riveting portrait of both Victorian England and the moody, lonely, approval-craving Sherlock.
