Enola a lehetõ legváratlanabb helyen - egy londoni nyilvános mosdóban talál rá legújabb küldetésére. Itt fut össze régi ismerõsével, Lady Cecilyvel, akivel kölcsönösen felismerik egymást. A balkezes kisasszony rózsaszín papírlegyezõjével feltûnés nélkül jelzi korábbi megmentõjének, hogy bajban van - apja szörnyû házasságba akarja kényszeríteni. Enola nagyon jól megvan egymaga is - ahogy édesanyja mindig is mondta -, de ezúttal úgy érzi, akár saját szabadsága árán is össze kell fognia az õt mindeddig üldözõ bátyjával, Sherlockkal, hogy megmenthessék a balkezes kisasszonyt az apja által ráerõltetett házasságtól. Az Edgar-díjas Nancy Springer mesteri módon eleveníti meg a viktoriánus kori Londont az eszes és rettenthetetlen Enola Holmes újabb kalandjaiban.
