Between disguises and escapes, Sherlock Holmes's sister will show us that she also has a bit of investigative talent. But will Enola be able to decode the necessary clues and finally find her mother? The book that inspired the Netflix film starring Milly Brown, Henry Cavill, and Sam Claflin.
In Enola Holmes: The Case of the Missing Marquess , Enola Holmes—sister of the famous detective Sherlock Holmes—discovers on her fourteenth birthday that her mother has disappeared. Because of this discovery, she embarks on a journey to London in search of clues to her mother's whereabouts. But nothing could prepare Enola for what awaits her in the big city.
Upon arrival, she finds herself embroiled in the kidnapping of a young marquis. And in the midst of the plot, she's forced to flee from murderous villains and try to dodge her cunning older brothers—all while gathering clues about her mother's strange disappearance.
However, in this search for her mother, she has a very important ally: a notebook of encrypted messages left by her mother. It will be her companion in all the adventures and troubles the cunning Enola will get herself into.
Enola Holmes: The Case of the Missing Marquess makes it clear that the search for what we love is never in vain and the paths we must travel on this journey will not always be smooth.
