4.0

This would’ve gotten 5 stars except the middle portion of the story kind of dragged for me. I wanted more London and less Utah, but I had to read the story where it all began. The mystery was interesting and I liked the review from the culprit about everything that happened and from Sherlock of how he solved it so the reader truly understands the whole story.
