Occasionally, he shadows them in disguise in order to assess or even directly test their abilities with creative scenarios he devises. Scotland Yard, in the main, allocates crimes to solve and Holmes mentors his students. He does so with his customary gusto and inventiveness. Holmes begins instructing his decidedly curious assortment of students from home and abroad. Some, however, will become bodyguards and spies. Most students will become police officers. Lestrade tells Holmes that a school of detection has been formed to train a new breed of modern investigators that will serve in Great Britain and the Empire. Inspector Lestrade is waiting for Holmes with a proposition of national importance. Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson return to Baker Street after a night pursuing a vicious criminal. Holmes, meanwhile, continued briskly, “After your son returned, . No matter how old a mother becomes, she will always love her children.” I noticed her eyelids grow heavy. But as the complicated lines of friendship, love, and loyalty blur, time is running out-and tragedy waits in the wings. When Watson and Holmes join the theater program, the “accidents” start anew, giving them no choice but to throw themselves into the case. And no one-least of all the girl’s peculiar, close-knit group of friends-is talking.

The mystery has gone unsolved the case is cold. But upon their arrival at Oxford, Charlotte is immediately drawn into a new case: a series of accidents befell the theater program at Oxford last year, culminating in a young woman going missing on the night of a major performance. With all the freedom their pre-college summer program provides and no one on their tail, the only mystery they need to solve, once and for all, is what they are to each other. Charlotte Holmes and Jamie Watson finally have a chance to start over. In the explosive conclusion to the New York Times bestselling Charlotte Holmes series, Holmes and Watson think they’re finally in the clear after graduating from Sherringford…but danger awaits in the hallowed halls of Oxford.
