Enola Holmes and the Clanging Coffin

By Nancy Springer
Enola Holmes and the Clanging Coffin by Nancy Springer digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Enola Holmes—international bestselling and Netflix streaming sensation—returns when the rescue of a young woman sends her into battle with her brother Sherlock against his most deadly, implacable enemy - Professor Moriarty.

In February 1891, London, Enola Holmes—the much younger sister of Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes—is attending a burial when she hears the faint sound of a handbell in the graveyard. It is not in Enola’s nature to ignore such oddities, no matter the occasion and when she investigates further, as is the Holmes' family instinct, she discovers something absolutely chilling. The ringing bell is attached to the tombstone erected over a recent gravesite and someone, buried within, is pulling the string to ring the alarm.

Galvanized into action, Enola and her companions swiftly and successfully unearth the coffin within, freeing a still-living young woman, one Trevina Trairom. Enola, by predilection and by trade a Scientific Perditorian, a finder of lost things, finds herself comforting and protecting this young girl. The girl herself is a mystery – she remembers very little, including her identity, and has no idea who has buried her alive, much less why. While protecting this mysterious girl from an enigmatic enemy, she discovers that Sherlock is engaged in a related mystery. Enola joins Sherlock in his battle against the scourge of London, the Napoleon of Crime himself, Professor Moriarty. Facing her most brutal foe ever, determined to protect and unravel the secrets surrounding the mysterious Trevina, Enola takes her place more fully than ever as a proud member of the Holmes family.

Enola Holmes and the Clanging Coffin Reviews

4.0
“Enola Holmes and the Clanging Coffin has the same lively spirit as the earlier books, but it feels warmer and more human. It whips you through a vivid Victorian London with a bite of humor and a lot of heart. Enola charms everyone she meets, from the Professional Women’s Club to Florence Nightingale, while still stumbling humorously over her own flaws. She and Sherlock join forces to outwit Professor Moriarty, all while protecting a mysterious girl named Trevina. I enjoyed watching Enola’s case weave with Sherlock’s pursuit, as Moriarty keeps crossing timelines. This is a witty, fast paced adventure that feels fresh and genuinely entertaining. Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for an arc of this book. #NetGalley #EnolaHolmesandtheClangingCoffin #arcreview 4.5 ⭐️ story | 5 ⭐️ narration”
“A Bookish Co. Review Enola Holmes & the Clanging Coffin 5 ⭐️ by Nancy Springer 🦖 2025 Book 57/150 📚 Book # 10 of the Enola Holmes Mysteries The latest adventure of Enola Holmes is spectacular. Exciting, twisty, and fun in a perfect Victorian era London, home to everyone’s favorite famed sleuth. Enola has gained quite a life for herself. She is beloved by the Professional Women’s Club, THE Florence Nightingale, and nearly everyone who meets her- with the exception of her two much senior to her, older brothers. At 17 years old, she is still a little girl in their eyes and Enola desires to be perceived, of as a peer of theirs. She finds herself embroiled in a mystery again, while sitting graveside for an interment of an elderly female friend. A tiny ringing bell clangs through the air, and she appears to be the only person who has heard it. At the conclusion of the services, she bolts toward the sound. What she finds there, horrifies her to be bones, as it is everyone’s nightmare in Victorian England. A beautiful young woman, buried alive, in an haphazard plot. Dichotomies reign with a very expensive name plate, upon the most cut-price coffin. Someone buried her quickly, in an unassigned position plot, but took the time to install the safety coffin system- a bell to ring, if ever buried alive. Enola scrambles to free this woman from her entombment and stumbles headfirst into the dangerous world of the most dastardly criminal in London. Will Enola prove clever enough to match wits with the Master? This is a MUST READ - 5 Star ⭐️ YA of 2026, I absolutely adored it! Well researched, intellectual, creative and brilliant storytelling at its’ finest. It is with great anticipation that I await the next installment of our favorite female detective’s exploits. I was honored to receive an ARC and am thrilled to share my experience with this fantastic novel!”
“Enola Holmes and the Clanging Coffin is another delightful and clever installment in Nancy Springer’s beloved mystery series following the brilliant younger sister of Sherlock Holmes. This time, Enola finds herself in the middle of a thrilling and eerie case involving a mysterious girl who while thought to be dead, is dug out of her grave when Enola hears her death bell ringing. As always, Enola shines with her quick wit, independence, and refusal to conform to the world around her. Springer balances humor, suspense, and just the right amount of gothic atmosphere, making this story both adventurous and emotionally resonant. Readers get to see Enola’s continued growth as a detective and as a young woman navigating her place in a world that constantly underestimates her. It’s a perfect read for fans of classic mysteries, strong female leads, and historical adventures. Enola continues to prove she’s every bit as sharp and capable as her famous brother.”
