The first book inside a witty, suspenseful new trilogy about a brilliant new crime-solving duo: the teen descendants of Sherlock Holmes and John Watson. This clever page-turner will appeal to enthusiasts of Maureen Johnson and Ally Carter.

Jamie Watson has always been intrigued by Charlotte Holmes; in the end, their great-great-great-grandfathers are perhaps one of the most infamous pairs in history. But the Holmes family members has always been unusual, and Charlotte is definitely no exclusion. She’s inherited Sherlock’s volatility and some of his vices-and when Jamie and Charlotte finish up at the same Connecticut boarding school, Charlotte makes it clear she’s not really looking for friends.

But when students they both have a history with dies under suspicious conditions, ripped straight from one of the most terrifying of the Sherlock Holmes tales, Jamie can’t afford to keep his distance. Danger is definitely mounting and nowhere is certainly safe-and the only people they are able to trust are each other.

This production carries a bonus excerpt from The Last of August, the second audiobook in Brittany Cavallaro’s Charlotte Holmes Series.
