While we're still crossing our fingers for another Enola Holmes movie, fans all over the world have slowly fallen in love with the beloved book series that started it all. Although readers might have thought they had to say goodbye to our favorite detective after the last book was published in 2010, Nancy Springer is giving us a big surprise with a brand new Enola Holmes novel!

Seventeen has the official cover reveal on Enola Holmes and the Black Barouche, which returns to the iconic Enola Holmes universe as she continues to solve mysteries with her impressive skills. Cover designer Olga Grlic and illustrator Tara Phillips brings Enola to life in a brand new way with a fresh design to the series.

Curious what Enola will be facing in this brand new adventure? We also got you covered on that! Wednesday Books and Minotaur Books also shared what we can expect in this new novel and it might be her biggest mystery yet.

"Enola Holmes is the much younger sister of her more famous brothers, Sherlock and Mycroft. But she has all the wits, skills, and sleuthing inclinations of them both. At fifteen, she's an independent young woman—after all, her name spelled backwards reads 'alone'—and living on her own in London. When a young professional woman, Miss Letitia Glover, shows up on Sherlock's doorstep, desperate to learn more about the fate of her twin sister, it is Enola who steps up. It seems her sister, the former Felicity Glover, married the Earl of Dunhench and per a curt note from the Earl, has died. But Letitia Glover is convinced this isn't the truth, that she'd know—she'd feel it—if her twin had died.

The earl's note is suspiciously vague and the death certificate is even more dubious, signed it seems by a John H. Watson, M.D. (who denies any knowledge of such). The only way forward, it seems, is for Enola to go undercover—or so Enola decides at the vehement objection of her brother. To uncover the secrets held tightly within the Earl's hall, Enola is going to require help—from Sherlock, from the twin sister of the missing woman, and from an old friend, the young Viscount Tewkesbury, Marquess of Basilwether!

Enola Holmes returns in her first adventure since the hit Netflix movie brought her back on the national bestseller lists, introducing a new generation to this beloved character and series."

So get ready Enola Holmes fans, because her story isn't done just yet!
