A Study in Shifters
The Adventures of Marisol Holmes Book 1
by Majanka VerstraeteGenre: YA Paranormal
“The game is afoot.”
Seventeen-year-old Marisol Holmes wants to live up to the family
legacy; after all, she is the great-great-great granddaughter of
Sherlock Holmes. What's more Holmesian than a grisly murder? The
Conclave, an underground organization of detectives solving
supernatural cases, is giving her just one chance to catch a
killer and join them. After all, as a half-blood jaguar shifter,
Marisol is uniquely qualified to solve this murder—since every
scrap of evidence points toward the culprit being a fellow jaguar
shifter.
“There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact.”
There's more to this than just evidence. Is one of her own people
really involved, or is this all a ploy to kick Marisol’s mother
off the shifter throne?
When Marisol discovers her handsome best friend, Roan, is
missing, she realizes Roan may be the killer’s next target. The
stakes just got higher than political intrigue.
"When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains,
however improbable, must be the truth."
Just when things couldn’t get worse, Marisol’s
ex-boyfriend-turned-nemesis, Mannix, starts leaving sinister clues
for her. In her last case, Mannix broke her heart and ruined her
case, and Marisol isn't sure which is worse. Marisol fears this
case too might be far more personal than she could’ve
imagined.
"Elementary."
It’s time for Marisol to prove her worth, or her people could
fall into chaos while her best friend loses his life.
This book is perfect for fans of: shapeshifters, steampunk,
paranormal, high school drama, teen romance, Sherlock Holmes and
deadly intrigue.

Marisol Holmes, great-great-granddaugther of Sherlock Holmes and
jaguar shifter, is being held captive in a castle belonging to her
mortal enemy Mannix, surrounded by people who want her dead.
Meanwhile, Mannix's sidekick Indra is roaming around, pretending to be
Marisol.
The more Marisol learns about Mannix's plans, the more she realizes
she has to stop him at all costs. Underneath the castle is an
underground labyrinth filled with riddles that were once solved by her
famous ancestor, Sherlock Holmes. The labyrinth holds the powers of
ancient mythological creatures, similar to the power held by the
Sigils.
Mannix having access to the might of the legendary wolf Fenrir is bad
enough, but to allow him access to other, similarly magnificent
powers, is a recipe for disaster.
Marisol will have to do whatever it takes to stop Mannix, even if it
means risking her own life.
