What the movies changed here
- ChangedEnola and young Tewkesbury are both aged up (14 and 12 in the book) so the film can build a romance the novel doesn't have.
- InventedEdith, a jiu-jitsu teacher and tea-shop owner tied to Enola's mother, is invented for the film with no book counterpart.
- InventedA whole subplot of Enola being sent to a finishing school is created for the film; in the book she avoids that fate.
- ChangedThe mystery's villain and motive are reworked, and Sherlock and Mycroft are given far larger roles than their brief book appearances.
