Netflix's official synopsis teases fans with the promise of more thrilling adventures: "Even on holiday, mystery follows Enola Holmes, and you’re invited along for the ride. That’s right: Millie Bobby Brown is back as Sherlock Holmes’ equally brilliant younger sister in Enola Holmes 3, now in production in the UK. The latest installment in the adventures of the young detective sees her tackling another mystery, this time on the island nation of Malta.
