From Booklist:
In this third The Boy Sherlock Holmes series title, the 13-year-old gifted detective determines to find a government official’s daughter, who has seemingly disappeared without a trace. A ransom note clue, though, draws Sherlock into an increasingly suspenseful and dangerous investigation. The richly descriptive prose offers a vivid sense of both Victorian life and the diverse characters, especially complex, intriguing, and sympathetic Sherlock, an outsider conflicted between arrogance and self-doubt, reason and emotion, and driven by his desire for justice and sorrow over past tragedies. Returning readers will enjoy following young Sherlock as he develops his abilities and will look forward to his continuing adventures. Grades 7-10. --Shelle Rosenfeld
