Aaaaaahhhhh. The mystery was interesting and I enjoyed that it gave Enola the chance to use some new disguises and different skills, but what I loved most about this book was, again, her relationship to Sherlock Holmes.
I think it's fun how much she likes Watson despite not knowing him all that much, and that she struck up a friendship with Mrs Watson (even if none of the two actually know they were dealing with her).
Enola thinking about contacting Sherlock (even if finally she didn't need to) and him and
SpoilerSherlock's final remark about how it's a pity she will not trust him
makes me think that the two of them will work together at some point during the series and I can't wait to see it. Seeing them work against each other and together from afar, already fascinates and delights me, and I really want to see them do that face to face. I'm very satisfied that Sherlock comes to respect her more and more.
