Go to The Dancing Men and ask for a saucer of milk for your snake. Then all will be revealed.
That’s all the note says—before the ink disappears! Xena and Xander Holmes think living in London will be boring. But when they discover they’re related to Sherlock Holmes and inherit his unsolved casebook, life becomes much more exciting.
The siblings set out to solve the cases their famous ancestor couldn’t, starting with the mystery of a prized painting that vanished a hundred years ago. Can two smart twenty-first-century kids succeed where the celebrated Sherlock Holmes could not?

      Xena and Xander Holmes, descendants of legendary detective Sherlock Holmes, discover they share a hobby with their ancestor. They love to solve mysteries. Armed with Sherlock's unsolved casebook, they unravel the location of a missing painting. David Pittu will win kids over to this new mystery series. He switches accents with proficiency--from the American of the Holmes kids to the British of the many characters "across the Pond." In confident tones he also shares tidbits on American cultural differences from our English "cousins." Pittu never rushes. Instead he sets an appropriate pace for young listeners trying to solve the case right along with Xena and Xander. Thanks to Pittu and a compelling story, THE 100-YEAR-OLD SECRET won't be a secret for long. C.A. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
