Shirley Holmes, the 12-year-old great-grandniece of legendary detective Sherlock Holmes, is determined to carry on her ancestor's legacy and become the World's Greatest Detective. Like her illustrious ancestor, Shirley is brilliant and eccentric; and passionately engrossed in the art of solving mysteries. Accompanied by 13 year-old Bo Sawchuck, her sleuthing partner, Shirley embarks on adventures fraught with danger; danger of being caught by crooks or police, of failing in the race against time, danger of physical injury. While others may avoid the darker corners of life, Shirley avidly seeks them out. The Adventures of Shirley Holmes is a thrilling mystery series for discerning and sophisticated young viewers. Full of twists and turns and scary moments, Shirley's adventures keep audiences on the edge of their seats, wondering, "How will Shirley solve this one?"
