Publisher's Synopsis
"The game is afoot." Seventeen-year-old Marisol Holmes wants to live up to the family legacy; after all, she is the great-great-great granddaughter of Sherlock Holmes. What's more Holmesian than a grisly murder? The Conclave, an underground organization of detectives solving supernatural cases, is giving her just one chance to catch a killer and join them. After all, as a half-blood jaguar shifter, Marisol is uniquely qualified to solve this murder-since every scrap of evidence points toward the culprit being a fellow jaguar shifter."There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact." There's more to this than just evidence. Is one of her own people really involved, or is this all a ploy to kick Marisol's mother off the shifter throne?When Marisol discovers her handsome best friend, Roan, is missing, she realizes Roan may be the killer's next target. The stakes just got higher than political intrigue. "When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."Just when things couldn't get worse, Marisol's ex-boyfriend-turned-nemesis, Mannix, starts leaving sinister clues for her. In her last case, Mannix broke her heart and ruined her case, and Marisol isn't sure which is worse. Marisol fears this case too might be far more personal than she could've imagined. "Elementary."It's time for Marisol to prove her worth, or her people could fall into chaos while her best friend loses his life. This book is perfect for fans of: shapeshifters, steampunk, paranormal, high school drama, teen romance, Sherlock Holmes and deadly intrigue.
