In the books Mycroft Holmes is an enormously fat man, but here he is merely a tall yet stocky young man, although again this could be justified with the de-aging of the characters. In the canon, Moriarty was an elderly "reptilian" man with an imposing manner and crooked stance, whereas here he, or she, is an attractive young woman, although her looks are rarely touched upon.
Evident especially with Mori, not least because of her gender-switch.Lock is portrayed as a reasonably attractive young man, one character calling him "geeky-hot", in contrast to the original depiction of a thin, scarecrow-esque man with a beak of a nose, although this could be put down to the high-school setting.Lock & Mori was followed by two sequels: Mind Games (2016) and Final Fall (2017). Initially unwilling to participate, a budding romance between the pair soon draws Mori closer to Lock, all the while pushing him away after her own evidence reveals a suspect a lot closer to her than she previously thought, and Mori is forced to take matters into her own hands lest the killer go free. There is only one rule: they have to share all clues with each other. The book details a friendship - and even a possible relationship - between a sixteen year old Holmes and Moriarty, the latter being genderflipped.Īfter a classmate's father is murdered and the police at a loss for leads, the enigmatic sixteen-year-old Sherlock "Lock" Holmes challenges his newfound friend James "Mori" Moriarty to a game to see who can solve the murder first. Petty, Lock & Mori acts as a pastiche of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes characters, with the setting updated to the present day. Now discover their beginnings.Ī 2015 Young Adult mystery novel by Heather W.
