The Mysterious Benedict Society meets The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes in this middle grade adventure series written by award-winning author Ali Standish. This commercial mystery created in partnership with Working Partners and the Arthur Conan Doyle Estate is set in a secret school for extraordinarily gifted children and is brimming with magic, intrigue, and action. Currently in development for TV with Imagine Entertainment! And it's sold in 20 foreign territories and counting. What if young Arthur Conan Doyle really went to a secret school for extraordinarily gifted children called Baskerville Hall? When a mysterious man with a pipe notices young Arthur's incredible deductive skills, Arthur's offered a spot at the esteemed Baskerville Hall and a chance to lift his family out of poverty. There Arthur makes quick friends with Irene Eagle, a girl who boldly strides into any adventure, and Jimmie Moriarty, a boy whose brilliance rivals Arthur's own. But he makes enemies, too, who want Arthur expelled . . . or worse. Soon Arthur and his friends (and enemies!) are invited into a powerful secret society called the Clover. In order to be accepted into the illustrious social club, they must pass three tests, but along the way, Arthur uncovers a mystery that will lead to grand adventure . . . and even greater danger. Arthur will need all the help he can get to solve the puzzle and keep a shocking truth from falling into the wrong hands. Meanwhile, he will finally meet the man who becomes his greatest mentor: Professor Sherlock Holmes.
