“A Study in Charlotte” is a fast-paced mystery following Charlotte Holmes and James Watson, descendants of the famous detective duo, as they go to boarding school. However, a student’s body is found with all clues pointing to Holmes and Watson as the main suspects. What follows is a race for these amateur detectives to find the real killer, all while battling the history of their family relations. 

This book was positively thrilling and so fun to read. The plot twists and murderous reveals were convincing and brilliantly written. The romance subplot also worked out very well.
