Content descriptions
| Summary, etc.: | Jamie Watson and Charlotte Holmes are looking for a winter break reprieve in Sussex after a fall semester that almost got them killed. But nothing about their time off is proving simple, including Holmes and Watson's growing feelings for each other. When Charlotte's beloved uncle Leander goes missing from the Holmes estate -- after being oddly private about his latest assignment in a German art forgery ring -- the game is afoot once again, and Charlotte throws herself into a search for answers. So begins a dangerous race through the gritty underground scene in Berlin and glittering art houses in Prague, where Holmes and Watson discover that this complicated case might change everything they know about their families, themselves, and each other. |

*Starred Review* The sequel to the warmly received A Study in Charlotte (2016) picks up around the holidays, as Jamie Watson and Charlotte Holmes enjoy some downtime in England after the autumn semester that saw them almost lose their lives. But there's something a bit off about their time spent at the Holmes' residence in Sussex, a tension confirmed when Holmes' beloved uncle Leander disappears under mysterious circumstances. Add to this the discovery that Charlotte's mother's illness may in fact be a poisoning, and before we know it, Watson and Holmes are on the case again. Through the streets of Berlin and Prague, they dive into the underground world of art forgeries in search of Leander, who'd been hot on the case, and find themselves tangled up with August Moriarty and the rest of his wily family. Cavallaro generously and organically acclimates readers back to the richly detailed world of the series, before picking up the pace in the novel's second half, in which the twists and turns will leave them breathless. The complicated back and forth of Watson and Holmes' feelings for each other bring additional emotional depth. Beautiful prose, thrilling action, a touch of romance, and two complicated heroes to root for make this a not-to-be-missed sequel. Readers will be craving the final book in the trilogy.
