This was enjoyable, but I think I am done with this series for now. I am re-watching the Netflix movie, which I truly enjoy.
In this one, Enola is on her own in London and trying to make a business for herself as a secretary (Miss Mesholm - Holmes mixed around) to Dr. Leslie Ragustin (?). She learns of Lady Cecily's disappearance and makes inquiries in disguise. There are dangers galore as she is garrotted by a strong man (high neck dress and random drunkards to the rescue) and almost captured by her brothers Sherlock and Mycroft.
Some of the references in this:
Perditorian - someone who finds lost things or people
Mesmer / Mesmerize
Jekyll-and-Hyde
Jack the Ripper
