Dear bookstagrammers, 

Trust you are well and in good health! 
 
Here I am with another book review and this time, I am presenting you with a Maltese translation of the adventures of Sherlock, lupin u jien. Adapted to the Maltese language by Dwayne Ellul and published by Merlin. It is a story that narrates the adventures of three best friends; Sherlock Holmes, Arsene Lupin and Irene Adler. It is the fourth book from the series that involves mystery and investigation. 

The story is about Irene's family that has moved to Evreux, Normandy. Soon after arriving at her new home, she was approached by a mysterious woman who mutters some strange words about Irene's mother being in danger, before vanishing into thin air. Sherlock, Lupin and Irene must decipher a series of clues that will lead them to a secret crypt beneath the streets of Paris to an ancient relic that was rumored to be worth a fortune. But how far will someone go to obtain the priceless treasure? 

Regarding my opinion about this book, I am not 100% sure about the story. Probably due to translation issues. I expected a little bit more.
 
 QOTD: Do you read any translated copies or do you prefer the original?
