Enola Holmes and the Elegant Escapade by Nancy Springer

Enola Holmes, Sherlock's much younger, and feistier, sister, returns in
an adventure of a confused young Baronet's daughter who is on the run
from her father's devious schemes in Nancy Springer's Enola Holmes
and the Elegant Escapade.
Enola Holmes, the much younger sister of Sherlock, is now living
independently in London and working as a scientific perditorian (a finder of
persons and things). But that is not the normal lot of young women in Victorian
England. They are under the near absolute control of their nearest male
relative until adulthood. Such is the case of Enola's friend, Lady Cecily
Alastair. Twice before Enola has rescued Lady Cecily from unpleasant
designs of her caddish father, Sir Eustace Alastair, Baronet. And when Enola
is brusquely turned away at the door of the Alastair home it soon becomes
apparent that Lady Cecily once again needs her help.
Affecting a bold escape, Enola takes Lady Cecily to her secret office only to
be quickly found by the person hired by Lady Cecily's mother to find the
missing girl - Sherlock Holmes himself. But the girl has already disappeared
again, now loose on her own in the unforgiving city of London.
Even worse, Lady Cecily has a secret that few know. She has dual
personalities - one, which is left-handed, is independent and competent; the
other, which is right-handed, is meek and mild. Now Enola must find Lady
Cecily again - before one of her personalities gets her into more trouble than
she can handle and before Sherlock can find her and return her to her father.
Once again, for Enola, the game is afoot.

NANCY SPRINGER is the author of the nationally bestselling Enola Holmes

the hit Netflix movie, Enola Holmes. She is the author of more than 50 other
books for children and adults. She has won many awards, including two Edgar
Awards, and has been published in more than thirty countries. She lives in
Florida.
