Following The Initiation, twelve-year-old Moria Moriarty returns as narrator of her brother James's partnership with his Baskerville Academy roommate, Sherlock Holmes. The trio investigates the death of Mr. Moriarty and uncovers rival criminal organizations, all while juggling new romantic interests. With clever references to Doyle's originals, genre fans should enjoy this modern-day Boston-based reimagining of the rise of Holmes's arch-nemesis.
