Horatio Holmes (Books)

Horatio Holmes Books

Horatio Holmes has come a long way since his days at Longtides Elementary. Since then, he's learned to play the bugle (badly), worked as a writer of competitive mathematics problems, and even acted in Hamlet playing the very character for whom he was named. In other ways, he's still the same as he ever was: an avid reader, a pursuer of justice, and someone who likes his hot dogs with mustard. His writing often displays a playful spirit alongside a deep concern for justice.

Still, he's creative, good at thinking through facts, and has a wicked smart best friend, Jinju. Together, they might make great detectives after all!Ratio Holmes has no intention of continuing detective work after his first case. That is until a green backpack, an art competition, and a friend in need come together. Jimmy-called-James has been accused of vandalizing another artist's painting. Even with Jinju's help, it won't be easy for Ratio to prove his friend's innocence to the satisfaction of the Longtides Elementary Art Teacher: Ratio's mom.
