A great start to a series about the life of Sherlock Holmes when he was a teenager. In this one, he is staying at the manor home of relatives when he gets involved in the murders of two local men; he has the help of his American tutor, a local boy, and also the independent fiesty daughter of the tutor. He misses his father and his brother Mycroft, feels abandoned, and yet curious about everything. It's a good look into the mindset of the future adult Holmes. I'm interested to read more in the series, as it was a good mystery and fun adventure too; would also like to compare it with the other series, THE Boy Sherlock Holmes, by Shane Peacock.
