Synopsis

Set in London’s East End at the end of the nineteenth century, this story follows Janey Wiggins as she navigates a life shaped by poverty, hunger and the risks of the street. A chance encounter with Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson changes her circumstances, and she is taken on as an apprentice “irregular”, learning to turn hard-won experience into practical insight.

When a local case centres on reports of a ghost appearing in an upstairs window, Janey and her friends begin to investigate. As her own ideas come into conflict with Holmes’s approach and a child’s safety is at stake, she must decide whether she has the courage to act. Suitable for readers who enjoy mystery and detective fiction.
