Monster on the Moors is a fun Sherlock Holmes adaptation that after a slow-ish start begins to pick up. Unlike the original Holmes where everything ends up having a logical explanation, this one does include actual monsters and spooky elements, which is a nice touch for modern readers. It's a perfect and quick read for teens during the Halloween season

The writing style fit the story nicely. Sometimes I would get confused when it got to the perspective of the children, but overall it was an enjoyable read.

MONSTER ON THE MOOR is an exciting YA mystery set in England, the sequel to THE LOST TREASURE. Both star Bobby Holmes, whose mother is a Scotland Yard Special Investigator. Bobby has Second Sight--clairvoyance--which isn't always perfectly revelatory. Bobby, cousin Brenda and her two friends Stevie and Michael in the U.S., find their vacation on the North Yorkshire Moors both enlightening and dangerous as they encounter both a shapeshifter and sorcery.
