While this author writes for children, her books are very enjoyable for adults as well. She does not write down to children. Her description of Victorian English life strikes me as very accurate. The premise of this series is that Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes have a much younger sister, Enola Holmes. Enola (which is "alone" backwards), as a late in life surprise for their parents, is a bit of an embarrassment to the Holmes brothers. When their mother, a liberated woman, goes missing, Enola flees as well in order to avoid being shipped off to a boarding/finishing school, where she would be trained to become nothing more than a decoration to a wealthy man's life. Enola abhors the mere idea.
Enola fled in the first book in this series, and in subsequent stories she has inadvertently encountered older brother Sherlock, who has been searching for her. Affection is growing between the two siblings through their brief encounters. Sherlock is also developing a growing respect for his clever, daring little sister.
In this story, Enola and Sherlock independently encounter Florence Nightengale, who helps guide Sherlock to some understanding of why his little sister flees at the mere sight of him.
I really enjoy this series.
