"I have been enjoying this series and this fourth installment has moved Enola into even more danger and has forced her to enlist the help of the person she is trying most to avoid, her brother Sherlock. I am looking forward to seeing how the series works itself out and where and how Enola ends up. "
— Heather (4 out of 5 stars)
" Another winner from Nancy Springer in the Enola Holmes series. In this one, a character from an earlier book is once again imperiled and this time all three Holmes siblings help save her. "

— Tami, 1/27/2014" So I'm reading these out order but it doesn't seem to matter too much (or at least it doesn't to me!) and they're really cute! Mystery's not really my bag, but I do like me some Sherlock Holmes, so how can I not like his plucky little sister? "
— Kate, 1/27/2014" Book 5 in the Enola Holmes mysteries; Enola encounters Cecily, a girl from a previous book, who is being forced to marry a repulsive cousin. With the help of her brother Sherlock (at the end), she rescues Cecily. "
— M., 1/16/2014" This was was very fast-paced- mostly action & no time for a lot of description. Enola & Sherlock have considerable interaction. I like this one a lot. Definitely one of those juvies that reads well as a adult novel "
— Phair, 1/14/2014" Another adventure with Sherlock's young sister who is still avoiding the two brothers and encounters the left-handed lady in distress again and in needing of a rescue. With Sherlock's help and to Mycroft's despair, Enola sets off to find the captured girl and once again set her free. "

— Jess, 12/29/2013" Loved another visit from Enola. Liked another appearance of Lady Cecily. Glad Sherlock is starting to respect Enola's talent a bit more in this one. "
— Anne, 12/26/2013" This is a yet another superb youth mystery story as the story arc about the heroine's relationship with her elder brothers is beautifully advanced. "
