If you enjoy the younger sister detective angle and period mysteries, you might check out 'Esmerelda Sleuth: The Magic Box (Book 2)'. It features a Victorian-era heroine who uses sharp observation and unconventional methods to solve a seemingly impossible theft tied to a magician's stage prop, offering that same clever puzzle-solving with a dash of theatrical flair. Other good picks in that vein include the Flavia de Luce series or 'The Case of the Missing Marquess' itself for more classic Holmesian adventure.

For readers who adore Enola’s independence and sharp wit, I’d recommend 'A Spy in the House' by Y.S. Lee. It’s the first in 'The Agency' series, starring a half-Chinese detective in Victorian London—think Enola but with even higher stakes.
Alternatively, 'The Pearl Thief' by Elizabeth Wein offers a historical mystery with a fierce young heroine. And if you’re into alternate history, 'Leviathan' by Scott Westerfeld blends steampunk and mystery brilliantly. Each of these has that mix of brains, bravery, and a touch of rebellion.

If you loved the clever twists and Victorian charm of 'The Enola Holmes Mysteries,' you might enjoy 'The Wollstonecraft Detective Agency' by Jordan Stratford. It's got that same blend of historical intrigue and youthful sleuthing, but with Ada Lovelace and Mary Shelley as the protagonists—how cool is that?
Another great pick is 'The Case of the Missing Marquess' from the 'Enola Holmes' series’ spiritual cousins, like 'The Mysterious Benedict Society.' Both feature kids outsmarting adults with brains and heart. For something darker but equally immersive, 'The Darkwater Legacy' series has that gothic mystery vibe with a dash of family secrets.

Ohhh, finding books like 'Enola Holmes' is my jam! Try 'Greenglass House' by Kate Milford—it’s a cozy mystery with puzzles and a quirky inn setting, perfect for fans of clever protagonists. Or dive into 'The Secret of Platform 13' by Eva Ibbotson, which mixes whimsy and mystery in a way that reminds me of Enola’s adventures. If you’re into sibling dynamics, 'The Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place' has that witty, historical flair with a dash of the absurd.

'Enola Holmes' fans should check out 'Theodosia and the Serpents of Chaos'—it’s got a similarly precocious heroine unraveling ancient mysteries in Edwardian London. Or 'Murder Most Unladylike' by Robin Stevens, which delivers schoolgirl detectives with razor-sharp wit. Both capture that balance of fun and intrigue that makes Enola’s stories so addictive.

Esmerelda Sleuth: The Other Side of the Mirror (Book 1)
Meet Esmerelda Sleuth. Sleuth is her name and investigating is her game. (Paranormal Investigating, that is.)
Esmerelda makes a good living as an investigator in a rather progressive firm. She lives a stable and sensible life until she meets Lance; an old money "hottie" who works for a real estate firm next to her building. After accepting an invitation for a weekend getaway party, she quickly discovers that Lance has a secret. He is wealthy. That part is true. And, yes, he's procured a job as a realtor in the building next door. His secret is that he belongs to an underground society of humans who didn't abandon their connection to magic centuries ago when religion declared it evil and he has traveled through time specifically to find her and bring her back to his time to marry him. If that isn't enough of a far fetched tale to absorb, he informs her that she was born in his time to a family belonging to that same secret society and was promised in marriage to him as an infant. When enemies who didn't want to see the union of families take place made attempts on her life, her parents sent her into the future and erased her memories of them as a precaution.
Possessing virtually no belief in magic, ghosts, psychics, time travel, etc., it takes some doing on Lance's part to convince her to believe his story and go back with him. When she does, the lies, deceit and attempts on her life start all over again. Will she escape emotionally and physically unscathed?
"The Other Side Of the Mirror" is a steamy-paranormal-romance- mystery-thriller and book one of the Esmerelda Sleuth series.
Forced to return to the past and then venture back into the realms of the dark lord to save her friend, Esmerelda faces loss, love, and a new awakening in this final installment of the Esmerelda Sleuth Series.
Filled with excitement, love, loss, time travel, family dynamics, dimension hopping, and a few vampires, this is the completion of a story that you won't want to miss.
Lies, deceit and darkness lead Esmerelda on a journey through dimensions where she faces a world she never knew existed. Dark lords, aliens, and vampires await as she struggles to save her friend from the vampires by aligning with aliens who she later learned were cannibals! Through it all, she's finally reunited with Lance... but what about Killian?
The thrills, suspense, and romance continue in "Beyond the Portal", book 3 of the Esmerelda Sleuth, Paranormal Investigator series.
A series of past murders catch the attention of the police and the media.
All the people who were killed were women, all of which had some sort of relationship with a well known and successful businessman named Asriel Parker.
For some reason, the murders all point to him as the number one suspect and connection between them. The reasonable thing to do is to put him behind bars but there is one problem.
"Everyone is innocent in the eyes of the law until proven guilty."
There isn't a shred of evidence that actually pinpoints Asriel Parker as the culprit.
With that statement in mind, Selena March, a good police officer and detective is sent undercover as his live-in Personal Assistant to dig up whatever information she can use to put the murderer behind bars.
Selena has no idea what she signs up for but she knows for a fact that falling in love is not part of the whole 'undercover' mission
I quit and dipped. City threw a parade.
Only Jenna Blake—my oh-so-gifted junior who claimed she could "see through killers' eyes"—lost it.
At her celebration banquet, she went full drama queen:
"I owe everything to Kate Mercer. Please, bring her back!"
I laughed. Cold. Not happening.
Last time around, I was the hotshot detective. But every clue I found? She dropped it first like she read my mind.
People started saying I was washed.
So I went all in—three months, no sleep, cracked a massive trafficking ring. Led the raid myself.
She beat me there. Again. Place was cleaned out.
Boom. She's the city's golden girl.
I'm the clown with no game.
Pressure got ugly. My head snapped. I died chasing the last scumbag.
Then—bam. I woke up. Same day. Raid morning. Round two.
There are three things Samara Culkin loves: her father, wearing high heels, and being a detective. But in a world where being a female officer is considered weak, she struggles to find a place where she feels truly belong. Determined to prove The Detective Tag firm that she is worth it, she sets out to solve one of the biggest cases the city of Los Angeles has ever seen.
There are three things Clayton Jones likes: his car, detective skills, and the female detective who happens to catch his eye—Samara. As an expert and well-known crime officer, he is given the chance to work with her; a one-time possibility that rarely happens. The only problem is that she hates him. And he does not know why.
The Detective Tag is a crime fiction with a twist of romance. Join Samara and Clayton—all the bitterness, dislikes, and romance in between—as they dive into the world of crime cases and murder investigations.
Well, maybe a bit of finding love, too.
If you loved the blend of mystery and academia in 'A Question of Holmes,' you might dive into 'Truly Devious' by Maureen Johnson—same universe, same witty protagonist, but with an even darker twist. The way Johnson crafts puzzles around elite schools just hits different; it’s like Sherlock Holmes meets 'Dead Poets Society' with a Gen-Z flair. I binged the whole series last summer, and the way each clue unfolds feels like peeling an onion—layers of suspense with a few tears (from frustration or awe, take your pick).
For something less YA but equally atmospheric, try 'The Secret History' by Donna Tartt. It’s got that same eerie, intellectual vibe where the setting—a secluded college—almost becomes a character itself. Tartt’s prose is denser, though, so it’s more of a slow burn. Still, the moral ambiguities and twisted friendships left me staring at the ceiling for hours afterward.
Enola Holmes isn't just solving mysteries because she's Sherlock's little sister—she's carving her own path in a world that underestimates her. The late 1800s setting means women are expected to be demure and obedient, but Enola's intelligence and curiosity refuse to be boxed in. When her mother disappears, she realizes adults won't take her seriously, so she takes matters into her own hands. Each case becomes a rebellion against societal norms, whether it's decoding flower symbolism or outsmarting corrupt politicians. Her adventures aren't just puzzles; they're proof that a teenage girl can be just as sharp as the famous detective brother everyone idolizes.
What I love about 'The Enola Holmes Mysteries' is how every solved mystery doubles as personal growth. She starts off alone and uncertain, but through each case, she builds confidence in her unique skills—cryptography, disguise, and unconventional thinking. The books subtly show how solving mysteries for others helps her solve her own identity crisis. It's not about competing with Sherlock; it's about finding where she fits in a world that wasn't made for girls like her. That last scene where she writes her own name in the newspaper? Chills.
Enola's journey in 'The Enola Holmes Mysteries' wraps up in such a satisfying way! After all her adventures—outsmarting her brothers, solving cases, and carving her own path—she finally embraces her independence fully. The last book, 'Enola Holmes and the Boy in Buttons,' sees her reconciling with Sherlock and Mycroft while proving she doesn’t need their approval to thrive. She even starts her own detective agency, which feels like the perfect culmination of her growth. What I love is how she balances her rebellious spirit with a deeper understanding of family. The ending isn’t just about solving a mystery; it’s about Enola choosing her future on her terms.
One detail that stuck with me is how she uses her love of ciphers and disguises not just for cases, but to communicate with Sherlock in their own coded way. It’s a nod to their bond, even if they’ll always clash. The series leaves room for her to keep evolving, which I appreciate—it doesn’t box her into a 'happily ever after' cliché. Instead, it’s more like, 'ever after on her own damn terms,' which is so Enola.
I’ve been obsessed with Enola and Tewkesbury’s dynamic in fanfictions lately, especially how writers stretch their slow-burn romance across intricate mysteries. The tension is delicious—every case they solve together adds layers to their connection. Enola’s fierce independence clashes with Tewkesbury’s gentle persistence, and fanfics love to exploit that. Some stories frame their romance through coded letters or shared secrets during investigations, making their bond feel earned. Others dive into Enola’s internal conflict, balancing her detective instincts with growing affection. The best fics weave romance into the plot so seamlessly, it feels like a natural extension of the films.
What stands out is how authors reinterpret their canon interactions. Tewkesbury’s patience becomes a quiet strength, while Enola’s walls slowly crumble without sacrificing her agency. A recurring theme is ‘partnership’—their romance isn’t about sweeping gestures but mutual respect. One fic had them decoding a cipher together, their fingers brushing over clues, and it was more electrifying than any confession. The mystery backdrop lets their relationship simmer; danger forces vulnerability, and that’s where the magic happens. It’s a testament to how well fanfiction can expand on subtle canon chemistry.
