“In the second brilliant, action-packed book in the Charlotte Holmes series, Jamie Watson and Charlotte Holmes are in a chase across Europe to untangle a web of shocking truths about the Holmes and Moriarty families.
Jamie and Charlotte are looking for a winter break reprieve in Sussex after a fall semester that almost got them killed. But nothing about their time off is proving simple, including Holmes and Watson’s growing feelings for each other.

When Charlotte’s beloved Uncle Leander goes missing from the Holmes estate—after being oddly private about his latest assignment in a German art forgery ring—the game is afoot once again, and Charlotte throws herself into a search for answers.

So begins a dangerous race through the gritty underground scene in Berlin and glittering art houses in Prague, where Holmes and Watson discover that this complicated case might change everything they know about their families, themselves, and each other.”

I read the first book back in 2017 or 2018 and I finally, finally picked this up on audiobook. I have been wanting to finish this series, but I always find other books to read. I really enjoy Holmes and Watson and their relationship and how it is becoming more. I think Charlotte is brilliant on how she deals with the mysteries. I did find this not as great as the first book and I wanted more of the mystery instead of Holmes and Watson pining. I will still read the next installment.
