Tödliche Geheimnisse by Andy Lane
4.0
Another very good book in the Sherlock Holmes.
Even though Sherlock is older now than he was in the first book and has immensely matured, this still feels more like the very first book. Matty and Sherlock are more or less solving a mystery alone, which is quite refreshing to read after the previous books. It also showcases Sherlocks and Mattys friendship really well, which, of course, is always great.
However, it also felt a bit boring at times, especially after the very unique plots of the previous books, which just seemed bigger in terms of the ongoing mystery.
Oh, and there was a pattern of numbers mentioned (1,5,12,22,35 and so on) but the relation of the numbers was never mentioned, even though I was looking forward to it, since I like numbers (and I solved and just wanted to know whether I was right, but since it never got mentioned again I had to look it up myself.).
All in all, it was a very solid book which I highly enjoyed.
