Sherlock Holmes daughter Arabella is a little different and gets a great position at the Mutter Museum. Dr. Watson's son Henry is assigned to the Mutter Museum to help with a find and watch over Arabella since she tends to get in trouble. But Arabella isn't easy to handle. Henry and Arabella are sent on a wild adventure to find a Nephilim and find out a lot more including the attraction they have for each other.

I thought the story sounded so interesting and having the kids of Holmes and Watson would be a great mystery but I wasn't expecting the love story to be so upfront. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed both Arabella and Henry a lot and I loved the story about them but I was hoping for more mystery and a little less love. With that being said I did LOVE Arabella, she is so different and a bit awkward and a wonderful main character. Henry has been in love with Arabella for a long time and I thought they were so cute together. I loved their interactions and I loved the idea of them together. The story overall was great and if you go in with the knowledge of this being a love story you will love it. I can't wait to see what is next for Arabella and Henry.

I gave Boneseeker by Brynn Chapman 4/5 stars. Brynn has created a great story about the Holmes and Watson families keeping with the original feel of the old stories. Very well written. I loved the characters and I found this to be a really enjoyable read. I would totally recommend and looking forward to the next one.
