The Case of the Missing Marquess by Nancy Springer

4.0

Fascinating story. The sister of the famous Sherlock Holmes. Enola Holmes. Her mom disappears on her birthday, 14th, and she sends a telegram to her brothers, Sherlock and Mycroft in London that mother is missing. They show up mad the house is not taken care of even with the money they send and Enola is not properly taught. She runaways and stumbled on the disappearance of a young lord. Turmoil happens together on the poor side of London. They make it to Scotland yard, he is safe but Enola runs out because she needs to find her mom without adults. The ending she puts a coded ad in papers her mom reads in hope she can find her. Mom taught her codes of flowers and believes mom ran off because she wanted freedom from mens ways.(post stroke review)
