Enola Holmes 2 followed Sherlock Holmes’ younger sister as she opened her own detective agency and took on her first official case: finding a missing factory worker, Sarah Chapman (Hannah Dodd). Her investigation uncovered a deadly corporate conspiracy at a London matchstick factory, where the workers were being poisoned by a mysterious illness caused by a change in the factory’s chemical formula.

While Enola was on the hunt for Sarah, Sherlock was struggling to solve a mystery of his own involving financial extortion and government blackmail. The sibling duo soon discovered that their two cases were connected; the stolen documents and contracts the factory girls possessed were tied directly to the blackmail scheme.

The conspiracy was orchestrated by Mira Troy (Sharon Duncan-Brewster), the series’ version of Moriarty and the Treasury Minister’s secretary. She orchestrated the deaths and the blackmail scheme to seize total control of the match monopoly. Enola and Sherlock exposed the plan during a showdown at the Paragon Theatre. However, Mira escaped police custody during a chaotic battle at the theater and fled.
