‘Come with me, then,’ said Holmes, sitting up. ‘To where I saw Sutton, I mean. We could find him, contact the police together—’
‘No.’
He seemed to deflate. ‘But—’
‘I shall not visit a place where people routinely ingest drugs, nor will I in the least part sanction your doing so. You will not continue this…activity, or you will not continue your education at Wembol.’
…
It came to me then that this was Holmes’ dreadful affliction his life’s passion and Achilles’ heel.
…
The year is 1990; the place, Wembol School, London. When former pupil William Sutton goes missing, an eager Sherlock Holmes, aged fourteen, takes it upon himself to solve the case, much to Headmaster Thomas Carpitcher’s dismay.
Second in the In Loco Parentis series, A Dreadful Affliction now has Headmaster Carpitcher scrambling to keep up as Holmes blatantly disregards school regulations and his own safety to delve into London’s unsavoury underworld—and unsnarl the truth.

A Dreadful Affliction A Modern Sherlock Holmes Mystery In Loco Parentis Book 2 edition by Anne Louise Pepper Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews
As a young man and student he was already a master crime solver. Loved it. I would like to know more about his younger years.
This is a novelette featuring a young Sherlock Holmes as the main character, taking place in the 1990s. It is the second in the "In Loco Parentis" series, but can also be read as a stand-alone book.
While the first book in the series was an obvious remake of the classic Doyle story "The Musgrave Ritual", the origins of this story are less certain. It has many similarities to "The Resident Patient", but the names and circumstances have been so changed that it cannot be said for certain that it was the story the author had in mind. It is more likely a complete product of the author's imagination, "in the spirit" of Arthur Conan Doyle's tales. Anne Pepper illustrated Sherlock's deductive reasoning perfectly, and the story can easily be said to be Doyle with a modern twist.
The story is about a 14-year-old boy; however, it may not be suitable for a younger audience due to a drug-centered theme, brief mild language, and graphic violence.
Anne Louis Pepper has written another wonderful Adventure of Sherlock Holmes, this time with Holmes a fourteen year old boy, carrying on the traditions of the famous sleuth as a student in an English boarding school in the late twentieth century.
