As a younger sister myself, I relished every moment Enola outwitted her famous older sibling. I also appreciated the view into Victorian London from a woman's perspective. There are codes to break and puzzles to solve throughout that kept me guessing as Enola tries to evade her brothers and solve mysteries on her own. I'd give it to fans of Sherlock or those looking for historical or mystery fiction with a strong female presence.
