In her first book, The Case of the Missing Marquess, her mother has disappeared, and Enola’s older brothers, Sherlock and Mycroft, decide to send Enola to boarding school. However, Enola has other plans. She escapes to Victorian London where she quickly becomes involved in a kidnapping. Enola is no damsel in distress; she’s a brave and intelligent young woman, fiercely determined to retain her independence in a time when women had little freedom of their own. She solves difficult ciphers, dons many disguises and uses her keen observation skills to not only solve the kidnapping, but also start her own business as a Perditorian (finder of lost things and people)! Enola is a wonderful role model for young women. With an intelligence that rivals her older brother’s, she defies the expectations of both society and her family to not only do what’s right, but to gain and keep her freedom.
