Enola Holmes and the Black Barouche follows the much younger sister of her more famous brothers, Sherlock and Mycroft. With all the wits, skills, and sleuthing inclinations of them both, Enola is a force to be reckoned with. At fifteen, she is an independent young woman—after all, her name spelled backwards reads 'alone'—living on her own in London.

When a young professional woman, Miss Letitia Glover, shows up on Sherlock's doorstep, desperate to learn more about the fate of her twin sister, it is Enola who steps up. It seems her sister, the former Felicity Glover, married the Earl of Dunhench and, according to a curt note from the Earl, has died. Letitia, however, is convinced this isn't the truth. She believes she would know—she would feel—if her twin had died.

The Earl's note is suspiciously vague, and the death certificate is even more dubious, seemingly signed by a John H. Watson, M.D., who denies any knowledge of such a document. Enola decides to go undercover, despite the vehement objections of her brother, Sherlock. She soon discovers that Felicity is not the first of the Earl's wives to die suddenly and vaguely, and that the secret to her fate is tied to a mysterious black barouche that arrived at the Earl's home in the dead of night.

To uncover the secrets held tightly within the Earl's hall, Enola will need help—from Sherlock, from the twin sister of the missing woman, and from an old friend, the young Viscount Tewkesbury, Marquess of Basilwether.

Enola Holmes and the Black Barouche is Enola's first adventure since the hit Netflix movie brought her back to the bestseller lists, introducing a new generation to this beloved character and series.
