The Sherlock Society

Siblings Alex and Zoe Sherlock, along with their friends Lina (an avid bookworm) and Yadi (an aspiring cinematographer), start a summer detective agency with help from their retired investigative-journalist grandfather in Miami, setting out to find Al Capone's long-lost treasure. Their search leads them to a remote island in the Everglades, where they uncover alarming evidence of corporate corruption and environmental damage, including toxic waste that has harmed local wildlife. The diverse group of kid detectives relies on teamwork, research skills, and classic mystery-solving inspired by Sherlock Holmes and Nancy Drew, with a retired Black English teacher providing key historical clues along the way. The book blends fast-paced adventure and humor with themes of friendship, family bonds across generations, and environmental responsibility.
