The Sinclair’s Mysteries : The Clockwork Sparrow🖋Katherine Woodfine

 'Sinclair's department store was so new that, as yet, it had not even opened its door to customers. But already it was the most famous store in London - and therefore, some said, the whole world.'

👒Sinclair's department store was not like your every day shop in London - it really was the most luxurious store you could find, filled with the best clothes, hats, sporting goods, a world-class restaurant and more. So when Sophie Taylor, a fourteen year old, found herself a job there, she was, of course, more than enthralled. But soon after the priceless Clockwork Sparrow has been stolen from the store, she finds herself in a great dilemma. Sophie and her newfangled friends are on the path to solving this mystery but the question is whether they can crack the case and live to tell the tale.

📖This book is such a riveting find! It is a mystery novel series, similar to the 'Enola Holmes' series but in my opinion much more interesting. Both the series' are similar in certain ways as they both take place in the great cosmopolitan city, London. Both these series’ discuss about the East End and they also take place in a similar timeline. Yet still, I find that they certainly have their differences and I still find that the Sinclair’s Mysteries series is my go-to when it comes to old-timey mysteries. If you enjoy being immersed in classics then you may enjoy reading the Enola Holmes series as well.
