Aria and Liam are back with another standalone adventure aimed at 8-12 years old!
This time, the pair find themselves in 1900s London, England teaming up with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's daughter to take the job of solving a massively important mystery...
What happened to Sir Arthur?
I love Coline's books for children, and they are a fun read as an adult as they are enticing and draw the reader in.
I also adore the format of the book - gorgeous cover artwork, nice clear font, and font size, coupled with some beautiful illustrations, make for an eye-catching read!
If the illustrations look that great as black and white, I can only imagine what they would look like in colour in a paperback!
Aria and Liam are great characters that a child can relate to, and as an adult, I love seeing how they learn things during their story and grow as characters too.
This is a lovely story, and as Sherlock Holmes is one of my favourite classics, this was an extra special read for me!
We have mystery and suspense with a dash of thriller in there - a great combination ❤️.
High recommend for all children and adults alike!
