For when Enola visits the grieving Mrs. Watson, she discovers a decidedly bizarre bouquet among the standard bunches of flowers signifying condolences. Composed of an odd and sinister assortment of flowers, the bizarre bouquet seems to have been sent by someone who wanted revenge on Dr and/or Mrs Watson, and who is very happy the Doctor is missing. Perhaps the sender of the bouquet is also the one responsible for Dr. Watson's disappearance..! Maneron, Philippe. "Les enquêtes d'Enola Holmes - BD, informations, cotes". Bedetheque.com (in French). Enola Holmes is the star of the Enola Holmes Mysteries written by Nancy Springer. Currently, there are seven books in the series. The Case of the Bizarre Bouquet is the third book and this graphic novel is a stunning visual adaptation of it. As is typical, coded messages play a central role. Toward the end, there’s a coded message that isn’t decrypted for the reader immediately. Enola as the narrator asks the reader to wait until she reveals the message, even though certainly we could figure out the coded message. I wonder how many young readers who hadn’t before bothered to play with the encryptions took the time to figure that one out? It’s a fun way to draw the reader in a little deeper. Language

Enola is very classist, to the point of typically assuming that the things the lower classes say to her are just so much nonsense. I’m hoping she will soon realize her mistake, as often the reader is well aware that it’s not nonsense if only Enola would actually listen. She does, however, understand how the classes work, and knows she’s safer on the streets if she looks like she’s lower class. She also uses disguises of different classes to gain access to different places. Puzzles Enola tries to find Lady Cecily Alistair, who disappeared from her bedroom. Enola, after disguising herself, talks to Lady Cecily's family, who think she has run off with the son of a tradesman. Enola finds some strange paintings that make her doubt that notion, and goes to find their daughter. The book opens with Dr. Watson trapped in an insane asylum. They won’t believe that he is who he says he is, and there’s no way for him to leave. It’s clear that once money exchanges hands, the “patient” is in there for good, unless someone rescues them. Enola muses throughout the novel on how easy it is to be committed to an asylum—all it takes is a man with money and a doctor’s signature. It’s an easy and acceptable way to get rid of an inconvenient wife since divorce is scandalous. Violence New readers and myself will get a chance to explore this mystery further on the big screen. Sometime later this year, Stranger Things’ Millie Bobby Brown will star as Enola Holmes. Could this feature film reveal the truth about Enola? Is she really a Holmes? Well, if you’re not willing to wait, there’s another way to get your answer! She manages to rent a room in the house across from the Watsons and starts waiting for the next bouquet. She intercepts the delivery boy, who talks about a man who gave him the bouquet and then his nose fell out !!!
