Compared to the movie, the case of Lord Tewksbury takes on a completely different course in the original works of Springer. Debo decir que a mí lo que me encantó fue todo lo relacionado con Enola y sus hermanos, o más bien su hermano, ya que Mycroft pinta poco o nada y es Sherlock quien realmente está intentando darle caza.

And after Perry gets his day in court the true murderer will be revealed and the entire case explained.But Enola soon discovers from Tewksbury’s secret hideout that the young Marquess is not the victim of a kidnapping, but has instead run away from his burden of responsibility and smothering parents. However, Enola notices that the mesmerized Lady Cecily is using her right hand, so if she could make contact with her left hand, maybe the forthright Left-Handed Lady would break the mesmeric hold. After reading some that evening, Enola can’t figure out for the life of her how it converted Lady Cecily and drove her to run away. No obstante, me parece que la resolución del caso y parte de su base se enraízan en unos conceptos que no me parecen del todo fáciles para el principal público de estos libros: niños de entre 8 y 12 años. I would probably have given Left-Handed Lady a four-star rating if I were rating a kindle or print edition.

Watson informs Miss Meshle that he is here on behalf of his friend, Sherlock, who is unaware of his visit. The only reason she is alive is thanks to the high collar stiffened with whale bone and the drunkards happening by. Me reí con ellos, me gustaron los zascas que se daban, amé cómo se hacían trampas mutuamente y así veían sus semejanzas… En serio, adoro a estos dos personajes.

Watson grabs Lady Cecily and begins administering to her, Sherlock watching on and pointing out that this is no beggar girl and that clearly she is a gently bred lady in disguise. A younger, taller, black egret of a man is arguing with an older, stouter man about their foolish fourteen year old sister. With this upsetting news about Sherlock, Enola wishes she could consult with her mum, however they only communicate via encrypted flower messages posted in the paper. I do feel that Enola is a bit more stubborn than I would like, perhaps out of fear of a dull life or perhaps out of pride.

Una continuación que resulta tan entretenida como El caso del marqués desaparecido, el primer libro de la saga. Al tener solo 250 páginas y al ir dándose con celeridad todos los acontecimientos, la lectura no llega a resultar tediosa. Nearly blowing her cover, she finds a secret hiding place that seems to be the young Viscount's hideaway. Due to cancer, menopause and an early-onset form of dementia, Springer's mother spent less time with her after she turned 14 years old. The review also praised the novel for being "fast-paced and suspenseful" as well as its integration of Victorian culture but noted that it "wrap[ped] up a bit briskly".I never know if I can trust my own years-ago opinions, or even my opinions from two days ago, so I am very pleased to report that I love this series even more than I did upon first reading it. Enola está instalada en Londres y ha abierto un consultorio en el que se hace pasar por secretaria de un supuesto doctor Ragostin, un presunto experto en encontrar a gente desaparecida, pero todo es una farsa y es ella quien está ejerciendo como investigadora (o peditoriana, que es el término que ella utiliza).
